In my opinion, Semantic MediaWiki itself (or through the Semantic Result
Formats extension) needs enhancements for data output. Such as configurable
number output (precision, decimal point ./,/on/off), configurable date output
(strftime format string support or something like that). THIS would give new
opportunities to *really* use the stored data in the way you want. Once you
can configure the output of the queries exactly the way you want, you can
essentially build anything, because template support for data output is
already there in SMW.

Semantic Drilldown is there to give you an overview and some kind of generic
statistics view, for which the generic interface that it has now works quite
well - isn't it? But then again, I never really put it into use, so I may be
missing the whole point.

Patrick.
