fwiw, i would rather cakewalk focussed on their flagship daw, then this kind of thing, else sonar will end up "jack of all master of none" :S
it's extra cash in the "dev" pot...if they can recycle the code again with not more effort.. I'm sure propellerheads looked at the vst sdk and designed their stuff , so the transition wasn't that painful.
you might as well say to make zeta+2 etc sonar only also ;-) not gonna happen.
besides you dunno if they got in extra staff specifically to deal with that.
