Microsoft Dynamics GP, the next generation of end-user customization tools?

My new article is out on my Community column blog, In my humble opinion with The Dynamics GP Blogster. This time, I take a swipe at some significant improvements that could be added to the customization and integration tools like Modifier, Report Writer, and Integration Manager, just by switching out the programming environment and scripting languages, Visuals Basic for Applications and VBScript for Visual Studio Tools for Applications and PowerShell, respectively.

Far fetched? Not quite, go on and read my reasoning behind this, over at the Community's website.
