Good point -- I rescind my objects to discussion of BlueDragon specific syntax on this list. That said, Macromedia is clearly the authority in this regard until a standards body of some sort is created. That would be swell, but I don't see it happening any time soon. Macromedia is not exactly known for being "open" about things (present Macromedians excepted, of course).
