The missing point to Flex SDK is, Move on! If those components are not sparked by spark itself, move on. Don't replicate legacy code into a new formula.
Let's be more creative people, implementing new components based on Spark Architecture. Because later on, we will have a new architecture that we should do X implementation of our current Spark ones. As Jonathan mentioned, hole Halo components that didn't included in Spark cycle, can be achieved by Skins. Like some of them used in Tink new components. Suggest new components that isn't ready for Desktop/Web/Mobile If we try to re-create legacy we will not be able to evolve the SDK in a community matter.
