It can be extremely useful to have an add-on that's entirely native. The
downside to that is that, from the vendor perspective, you can capture only
a fraction of the users of that development environment. Id imagine if 5% of
all LiveCode users paid the fee for QR, then it would be generating buckets
of revenue to power new versions.

There are only a few platforms that can really support ONLY native reports
on a single platform and feed the developer. Even Crystal Reports supports
multiple development environments.
