From some news sites and also from Microsoft's press pass I could know that there will be DRM support in Silverlight 4.DRM is a nice feature which I would like to be in Silverlight.
But I wonder why they are not telling about other features, which as a developer we are waiting for from the Silverlight 1.0 days itself.I came from the WPF environment so I will really look for the below features first instead of DRM.
- Full implementation of Commands.Silverlight 3 doesn't have Button.Command property.Do we need to relay on interactions provided by blend 3?
- FindAncestor for RelativeSource binding
- InputBindings in UIElement.
- Attached events.
- Triggers or equivalent implementation in DataTemplates
- Option to create custom mark-up extensions.
- XPS support.
- Printing.
- More bindings in WCF such as TCP.
A huge wish list is here in Silverlight forum.Hope Microsoft will address our these small issues along with rocking new features.

Agreed. MS is working very hard to turn Silverlight into a premiere media platform -- but that particular strategic focus has left developers feeling like second-class citizens.
