New Box View Fails to Deliver Feature Parity With Deprecated Crocodoc/BoxView API

Upon receiving the recent announcement of the New Box View, I contacted ***email address removed for privacy*** with some concerns. Specifically, the New Box View seems to lack the following features that we use with the deprecated solution:

- most of the javascript methods and events supported by the deprecated box viewer (https://github.com/box/viewer.js)

- support for plugins (https://github.com/box/viewer.js#plugins)

The response I received from Box staff indicated:

"The new Content Previewer UI kit does not include plugin support right now.
The new View API does not provide PDF to HTML5 conversations [sic]."

Has anyone found an alternative solution to the deprecated solution?
