These are all very good points, HD-man. I must say, I did think it a little unlikely myself, but I put it down to good old-fashioned not accepting new ideas! I also think Naish's reconstruction looks a little front heavy to be gliding. If it had wing feathers on its hind legs, like Microraptor, it would look better.
UPDATE - Where've I been, my other hobbies, and how to navigate my Flickr:

Many thanks for the kind words.
