I just thought that I should voice my disappointment once more regarding the fact that Adobe as yet has not confirmed that XSLT is going to be included in the final release of AIR. This is particularly strange given that it is included in the version of WebKit that is being used by AIR.

As usual I have been thinking of a cool application that would be well suited to a simple cross platform desktop widget, only problem being that it requires XSLT for high speed grouping and filtering of data. Normally, data for an AIR application might be accessed through some “web service” but in this case it is accessed natively as XML from the file system. If AIR does not have XSLT support it makes it much more difficult to make compelling and richly interactive applications for the desktop.
