* Native libraries support -- applications can now bundle platform specific jars and libraries. Supports 32bit versions only.
* Addon improvements -- more configurable options like events and FactoryBuilderSupport delegates.
* New Artifact inspection API -- adds the ability to inspect artifacts at runtime and apply meta-programming.
* New threading options -- UIThreadHelper mirrors SwingBuilder's threading facilities and expands them.
