The next version of MPLAB which should be posted this week has a whole list of
user-requested features.  The tools group is doing its very best to keep MPLAB,
MPLAB-SIM, MPASM, PICSTART Plus, PRO MATE II, MPLAB-ICE, MPLAB-C17, MPLAB-C18,
MPLINK and MPLIB up-to-date and supporting all the Microchip PICmicros.  The
simulator was designed as an instruction-based simulator and admittedly will
not simulate all the peripherals.  That is why there are emulators.

For MPLAB-SIM the choice was to make a tool that could help productivity
without attempting to simulate all of the subtleties of the hardware.  If you
look at the assembler/simulator being developed by the GNUPIC group, you'll see
the result of opening up the software, as some have requested.  It's an
admirable effort, but it's a much bigger task than most probably anticipate,
and to get complete up-to-date support for all the tools listed above, is
tough.

BTW, on the program memory window, you can select to view the data in program
memory as disassembled code, or as a hex dump if you are just filling it with
data.
