The red means that the IDE is not resolving the jx namespace. So it seems to be a SWC namespace problem where something is happening that IntelliJ doesn't read and resolve the manifest correctly.
Why a plugin: Intellij has features that make creating projects and dependencies easy. One reason, Fred can say I am wrong is to define a FlexJS SDK type that can be created. I am a bit rusty but I know there are benefits. You are also correct that it can be run as an external tool as well. I guess it's just a matter of fiddling with things until something works and is not a workflow killer.
