DP notation is integrated with the DAW. Avid is talking about Sibelius 8 being more integrated with Protools. Yamaha/Steinberg is hard at work with the Spreadbury project which surely will tie their premiere notation tightly with the Cubase.
Cakewalk and Finale are looking like the two odd men out. One would think there would be people with enough vision at both of those companies to want to really work together on a next generation solution. It will not be long before excellent notation is considered a basic requirement for any leading DAW.

If the the triplet limitations were resolved, that would go a long way for me:
The Staff view places certain limitations on the use of triplets. The limitations are:- Triplets must occur in full sets of three.
- All three steps in a triplet must be notes (no rests) of the same basic duration.
- There can be no ties in or out of, or within the triplet.
Triplets are common in music. Other tuplets would be nice, but, I figure that is asking a bit much.
If MIDI data could be exported to a notation specific program, for publishing, I don't see the need to include "premier notation" within Sonar.

Ultimately, as we have seen, people will vote for products with their wallets or hold out hope, for years in some cases.
