I'm wondering if its possible to embed Flash into HTML, using only HTML

content usable by keyboard, no keyboard trap problems, for say A-grade

Seems to be fine in IE, but in Firefox you cannot get keyboard focus
onto the Flash without using the mouse.
I suspect http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FP-1219 is why you can't
move focus into the Flash without the keyboard.
The more usual problem in Firefox is not being able to move focus /out/
of the Flash object.
Just spotted
http://blogs.adobe.com/accessibility/2009/04/firefox_focus_and_actual_links_1.html
but
this sounds as if it relies on the actionscript within the Flash itself
being written in a particular way, and possibly on the javascript used
to embed the flash into the HTML page.
Interesting, hadn't seen that before.
I'm not sure the technique is dependent on how you embed it, but it does
look dependent on the JS DOM focus() method to move focus out of the
Flash object.
So I'd suggest the answer to your wondering is no. :(
