I'm using FlexJS 0.6.0.

CSS should get LTRB support for free on the HTML side. The horizontal and
vertical positioning is possible but you have to use transforms and
possibly ensure some other specific conditions. I was going to look into
how the layout is working to see how difficult it would be to add. It looks
like Harbs asked about layout as well in another thread. I've been trying
to stress test FlexJS on the HTML side by creating some layouts and the
constraints was the first thing I ran into that I thought I might be able
to help. Constraints in this case referring to left, top, right, bottom,
verticalCenter, horizontalCenter, baseline instead of the Cartesian
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartesian_coordinate_system> coordinate
system.

Does code navigation work for you when you enter the paths? I thought I
could live without it by opening the classes through the file system but if
I need to debug and step through the code it will be helpful to know why
it's not finding it.
