Could any one who knows more about this more than I do answer me this. Would this extension framework allow an app to stream a file and have it played in another app. For instance, on my Android TV stick I can open my network share in ES File Browser and click on a file and have it play via MX Player. The ES Browser streams the files via samba from the server and then passes it to MX Player to play. Would the Apple extension system allow for this type of model.

I am just using video as an example. I guess in general I am wondering if the new Apple framework would allow the host app to continuously stream content to an extension. So, I guess another example would be like a website. If it's a dynamic website in spanish, for instance, and I would like to use Bing to convert it to english. Would it be possible to design an extension that would dynamically translate the site, or would it be more of a static deal, where once translated, you have to execute the extension again to translate additional dynamic content that may have appeared on the same page.

Also, apple claimed that they are going to expose GPU to apps, so you can now write apps that can offload calculations to the GPU. Does that mean that we might finally see GPU decoding and encoding for none apple video formats, or is that still a no-no?
