    Random Fact I Learned: MobileNotifier was created by Peter Hajas, who was then hired by apple and that's why iOS notifications are how they are now.

    screen mirroring (DisplayOut), also copy and paste (hClipboard), and folders (Categories).

    And iOS 5's notifications were implemented into iOS 4 with NotificationBeta, or something of that name, then they recruited the developer to include it into iOS 5.

    Some of them yes, but many no. Many of them would have been implemented due to popular demand without the features being Cydia tweaks first.

    Maybe not all but it's just interesting to see how apple drip feeds features that should and could be there anyway.

    EDIT: My bad, I thought you were talking about features stolen from Cydia.
