It would be useful if CPT had a window with which to view Chess Base or equivalent Opening Book Files. This would allow me to assess probably of occurrence OTB and/or statistical success rate as I work on my repertoire(s).

Nice idea but It is just as easy to have both CPT application and Chessbase application open at the same time (re-size windows as desired). Then you can navigate to the same position in Chessbase and see your desired statistics.
That is what I do - and of course you can base the statistics on whatever Chessbase repertoire you want e.g. Your own games or other opening book.

Unless Stefan knows of any easy way to control Chessbase from within an open window on CPT, I doubt he'll treat it as a high priority.

But i know it's possible. Chessbase ctg book structure code was already revealed. I know of an app other than chessbase called Droidfish for android where I use it to open my favorite CTG books. And droidfish is opensource for anyone to check the code

I use CB for that. Couldnt do it when I had a small screen. A bigger one perhaps solves the problem. Im anyway a Little afraid of entering moves directly from CB opening books or simular feeling the moves/candidates should be selected on a Little more serious note.

I hesitated to comment on this one, but in fact I have already for quite some time some major features in mind, which are based on something similiar to what you mention. At the moment I leave it at that. I hope to provide more info later this year.
