Oh, yeah, searchable databases.  Now THERE'S a useful feature for a
multimedia standard.  Am I the only person who still views software by
the adage "Every tool has a purpose and every purpose has a tool."? 
It's the same problem as how people want their WEB browsers to do so
many unintended tasks that even Ron Popeil can't think of any more.  So
in my opinion, objects are crap.  For me, the only points of concern are
the video stream, the audio stream, and the format into which they're
stored and sync'd.
