True, you'd still need a Flash plugin, but in addition to being rolled
into Spidermonkey, the ActionScript VM itself is now open source.
That's completely aside from being part of any mozilla product. I do
expect to see some interesting things as part of the Spidermonkey
integration, but it opens some other interesting doors as well.
