Why Data Loader is a Software? Not a Cloud App?

Hi Vasant,

There are quite a few number of AppExchange Apps exists in the market on top of the Salesforce for Data Migration purpose. 
Dataloader.io
CRM fusion
Jitterbit
Informatica Cloud
....there are many

And Salesforce introduced Apex Data Loader in the initial stages, may be they want to continue the same as client side application and all other Cloud Data loaders as a AppExchange apps.

Regards,
Mahesh
