This has been my number 1 request for iOS since the beginning. I'm starting to think it's never going to happen.

  Ditto - very odd given that it's both a huge usability improvement and something Apple already had developed. A little time porting the services menu from OS X to a touch equivalent and it'd be done, probably without even needing an API change.

    It's a usability improvement for power users but a massive increase in complexity for regular users who comprise the vast majority of the user-base. I think they should solve the problem, but I don't think the existing solutions are good enough.

      Have you ever seen a normal user have to deal with sharing data between two apps which haven't hard-coded support? Most people just give up and think you can't do it. With a little streamlined support – i.e. default email, browser — and some basic UI thought (e.g. remembering the last / most frequent choices, setting per-app defaults, etc.) the current situation would be a lot less painful.

  Agreed. With every release my hopes are dwindling.
