Interestingly enough, it wasn't $future_version, but version 1.0, that didn't even support .NET and was scriptable only through JS. Silverlight is still scriptable through JS to this day. Given that Silverlight already supports a hybrid model I can image we could expect that to continue, with HTML as a possible alternative UI langauge to XAML.
