Yes, lots of software supports DNG. But Adobe has no way of insuring 
they do it *well* or of forcing them to offer complete support. Anyone 
who implements DNG conversion in their software is perfectly free to 
limit or cripple it in any way they choose. (Deliberately or 
accidentally.)

For example, Apple's Aperture will only convert DNG files from cameras 
for which it supports that camera's native RAW format. Apple's 
rationale is that they don't want to have people doing conversions from 
cameras for which Aperture has no profile. (Sounds bizarre to me: No 
conversion at all is preferable to conversion without a profile? I'm 
guessing they'll pay for dumb decisions like this when beta testing 
ends and the Aperture vs. Lightroom war starts in earnest.)
