I didn't think it was AIR in FB DV. There is a special "authoring" player
that Flash Pro uses that I thought was being used in FB. It has special
APIs. Apache Flex wouldn't be able to use it. The main question is whether
a plugin can open a portal to "something else". I would think someone has
solved a plugin opening a browser window by now.
