Although LC calls itself cross-platform, I despise the fact that commands in the dictionary, particularly for mobile, have quirks that make it a little different for Android than iOS. If it wants to call itself cross-platform, a term that is in the dictionary should work exactly the same across all supported platforms. I would also be more likely to invest more into externals if they didn't focus on a single preferred OS rather than looking at the market potential for LC devs to build x-plat apps. LC tools should all be required to be x-plat - period. /just one opinion.
