I was watching a video about Boxee the other day (guys, please release an x64 version so I can try it out ;) ) and I came across some things, small and big, that I think would be nice to have in xbmc too.

For example in this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MwQG-4kT7FE) video at around 1:08 when a movie is clicked it show a little prompt providing three choices: play, info and trailer. I think this is a nice touch and unobtrusive. If people don't use that there could be an option to turn it off (or on for people that do).

Also, I see they have an rss torrent downloader which is pretty cool. I realize that it would not just be a matter of cut and paste from boxee to xbmc, but since they are related I guess it would be easier than building one from the ground up right ?

There's more stuff I like, but I guess my general question is if there are any plans to bring in features developed by boxee into xbmc. Not necessarily the ones I mentioned, but just in general?

Please start separate topic thread for each unique feature/function, it going to be so cluttered to read otherwise. Thank you.
