Provide a way to share content between Metro Style apps and Desktop Apps

Currently, since Metro Style apps are sandboxed, there is no possibility to share the content, which they show with a desired desktop app. Such a desktop app would provide more keyboard friendly input possibilities than a Metro Style app does. It is extremly important for business users to provide a way for fast input, but on the other side, it would make sense to have a touch friendly Metro Style app that can be shown during a presentation of KPI for example.

        I love this idea. There should be a way to share data and invoke contracts between metro apps, as well as between desktop and metro apps.

        You could i.e. provide a way to make two apps friends, like one must do to access internal members of a dedicated assembly. Providing a possibility to share an isolated storage area would be OK too.
