As you note, this is not just an OG problem. For example, the method needed simply to attach a photo to an email message you are composing on an iPhone is so totally unintuitive as to be insulting (at least on iOS 5.x -- may be different on iOS 6).

I think #3 could be handled by proper set up with #1, and I agree on both cases. I think #2 goes back to the "we all use the Mail app" statement and its commensurate baggage.
The iX devices are still evolving platforms, and Apple might be viewed as a monarchy to dictator for how they control what can/must/shall be done on them by outside developers. The coming revolutions will certainly be interesting.
