Well, when you look in MXMLClassDirectiveProcessor you will see lots of
code forks for when -mxml-children-as-data is true.  I suppose at some
point someone could do more refactoring to clean it up.  It just hasn't
been a priority.  One side of the fork generates the MXMLC code, the other
generates the data structures I've described in this thread.
