Well, the low level engine running beneath the covers is still the CM3 based engine, we've only update it to "look the biz" on the outside, which means better user interface looks etc. But because the low level design is totally different to the one found in FM, there are some things (like full right clicking and xml based skins) we cannot simply do with this system right now. Updating to the low level FM stuff would mean a _lot_ of work and would not be something that could be done within one dev cycle with the amount of hands we've got on the project at the moment. But we're always trying to find new ways to stretch the old war horse to new dimensions so you never know....we might be able to find ways around it further down the road.
