Did you mean this list?
- batch process of images (like photographs)
n/a in XPro.
- convert native formats jpg/png
Xpro has problems with many (most) tiff and eps files, not even mentioning psd and ai.
- convert from CMYK to RGB (and other colour space conversions)
See above, opening CMYK files almost never works.
- make complex selections and cut out shapes
Yes, I agree that some crops & cuts are easier in XPro than any other program... but stuff like selection feathering, colour-based selections, painting on quickmask, growing & shrinking, adding, deleting, and even more importantly what you can do to the selected areas. And no, bitmap tracer is not a subsitute for magic wand.
- enchance low-quality images (noise removal, curves, sharpening)
Well as someone responsible for the visual appeal of a web page I sure as hell will do whatever is reasonably possible to all images I'm sent.
That said, I wouldn't do a web design with any other software than Xara. The absolute easy & comfort of use, named colours & objects and per-object export make it a wonderful tool. A Xara mock-up is just so easy to convert into CSS.
