I think this should be one of the priorities. SAGA works fine in Linux and Windows (in windows it is portable, needs no install at all), but I think Mac is a problem. In my experience, calling it is much more stable than calling GRASS (there are less things to take care of, no mapsets to create, etc...), it is really powerful, and it is just around 10MB.
Having SAGA instaled transparently (with the alternative organization of algorithms, SAGA algorithm can be shown as "native" ones, no need to mention where they come from), will make SEXTANTE for QGIS a really powerful option out-of the box. Considering that GRASS is already installed with QGIS by default, those two apps will be probably more than enough for most cases. Anyway, a truly native join algorithm is clearly a good idea, and the more native algorithms we have, the more examples that other people can use to create their own ones, so many thanks for your proposal, Anita!
