[swfmill] Accessing frames in AS3

[Joel Poloney]

Definitely an interesting idea. Do you have an example of what you did in
the past? at least a high level over view? How big of a PITA is it? And will
the data chunk be limiting at all? After a quick over view of the Flex 2
docs for LocalConnection, I don't see the 32k limit in here anywhere. Where
did you read about that?
