What's new about this is that Apple is FINALLY listening to its power iPad users!

Apple introduced a Files app that essentially works like the Finder app on Mac. Moreover it even allows you to sync with third party cloud providers besides just iCloud. Lastly, it's putting in an actual dock, multiple window layouts, easy copy paste.

I think it's a real game changer and all of these are features that I've been truly looking forward to. It's almost like a turning point in my mind. It's crossed the threshold to where iOS can indeed act as a laptop/desktop replacement for a huge number of people.

Also, in response to a sibling comment on this thread; I don't think it'll be too long now before we see full blown app development on iPads as well.
