How can we improve Windows Azure Data Management: SQL Database?

Provide ability to replicate to Azure non-Azure SQL Server

Allow data to be transactionally replicated to the cloud, with an alternative way (SFTP?) to provide snapshot initialization data.

        @LiamCa, Replication is different then Data Sync, replication is a must because, what happens Azure's DB gets corrupt or loss of data happens and MS says its your fault, we only promise uptime, you should have taken backup !!! thats what all hositng providers do !! Replication is smarter choice to have most recent backup as well as do some local reporting and other similar benefits.
