Note that doing this is no better than simply using <embed> with the HTML4 
DTD. Worse, in a way, since now your document is non-conformant in two 
ways instead of just one.

Mind you, for people using Flash, conformance to standards presumably has 
gone out of the window anyway, so that is probably a moot point. (What 
with Flash being proprietary, non-standard, and all.)
