Microsoft ruined data binding in ASP.NET 2.0 when they dropped compone(entityspaces.net)

Microsoft ruined data binding in ASP.NET 2.0 when they dropped component support from the design surface. What am I talking about? Well, if you have ever used data objects or business objects that support the proper interfaces you can drag then right out onto your form, add them as the datasource to your grid, and then pick which columns you want to use, and in what order, including sorting, and so on. You can do that now with EntitySpaces in Windows.Forms, but all that was removed from ASP.NET 2.0. Why? Let's go back in time and look at the reason Microsoft gave (and still gives) as the reason they decided to remove design time data binding support from the ASP.NET 2.0 Framework.
