Bridge Features in XY ?

[CookieMonster]

I would like to know are there any scripts that give XY the functionality that is only in Adobe Bridge. I have a few ideas, I rather know if anything was released by the community, unless you want to know my ideas ?

• Bridge has an option to load a group of images into layers in a single document of Photoshop, this would be a nice addition.
  
  Mouse clicking (right or a combination of mouse and keyboard) to open Raw / JPEG / TIFF files into RAW.
  
  3D Carousel view of image contained in a folder -- can't deny that would be snazzy.
  
  Group Stacking similar images together -- presently an option found only in Bridge

Photoshop can be automated by VBScript, and it's own javascript engine. So some of these points can be tackled by "bridging" XYscripts and PS scripts.
1 - The anwser is a PFA which runs a vbscript to create a psd with selected images as layers.
2 - Again, vbs can probably make PS convert images scriptically. BUt AFAIK, XY doesn't yet support mouse+keyboard combination shortcuts.
3 - Neat idea! But I think it might be asking too much from a small, superfast file manager.
4 - If you mean combining the images, then again the answer is PFA scripting. But if you mean grouping as in sorting, then I have no suggestions.

Sorry, what do you mean by PFA ?
