Flash integration would be great but getting Flash playback into your 
application is very expensive and Macromedia doesn't let just anybody 
do it.  Anybody can build Flash exporters (file format is public) but 
when it comes to playback it becomes more complicated.

I mention this only to say that we can't necessarily blame Revolution 
for not having Flash playback.
