Though Tiger was the focus in the title of this release the only  
Tiger only features I can see are Core Image transition effects and  
SpotLight.  I believe all of the other enhancements are cross-platform:

1) replaceText much faster
2) deep masks
3) answer files (we can now prompt the user for multiple files).
4) There is one syntax for filtering files on both mac and windows  
and we can filter by type on mac (answer file(s) with type)
5) The answer folder dialog has been updated on Windows.
6) Arrays in the variable watcher.

So even though it was a Tiger focused release that coincided with  
WWDC there were some key features in there that affect my cross- 
platform projects.
