Actually, I think there are very good accessibility reasons for having the kind of content that flash produces, so long as it is accessible. This otivated a large amount of work on SVG accessibility, where a lot of these things are easier to do - such as http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG-access and other stuff. There are many many trivial uses of flash (where something simpler would have done as well in a more easily accessible fashion), but there are also very valuable, useful examples of flash content, used for example in education, where it adds accessibility to the material presented.

Especially if anyone takes the time to see what sorts of objects can be added to the Flash presentation with this tool. Funny ... I never would have imagined Flash as a tool for accessibility <grin />.
