Instead of creating all new AS and JS components (basically doing mirror
images for each component), I'm thinking of using the Flex SDK 'vanilla'
(with maybe wrapper classes to hide unsupported class members) and create
"only" the JS equivalents. This would greatly simplify development, and
there is no learning curve for Flex developers, as they use the SDK they
know and love.

I did some preliminary testing of this concept, and it has potential.
Especially if you have control over the cross compiler ;-) I'm not worried
about applications being too heavy with framework JS code, as the Closure
Compiler simply discards all code that is not used/referenced.

Like I said, I'm committed to getting FlexJS up and running first, as I
have a lot invested in it and I think it's the way forward. But I think I'm
addicted to playing with this whole cross compilation thing and hope I'll
eventually get round to trying it "the other way around" :-)
