** To be able to download new Activities directly from the User Interface.*


I have no idea what you mean by this.  Downloading files from the 
internet or from a school server is done by a browser (e.g. webkit). In 
Sugar,
this capability is provided by the Browse activity. I think most people 
would consider launching a browser as a normal part of the user 
interface of their system.

Perhaps it would be helpful if you could describe specifically what you 
mean by the Sugar user interface and why Browse is not part of it.
