Sounds like good news...

I will will definitely have to jump on the MX wagon.
Is the solution mostly based on a CF/Flash based technology or will we see a 
more open apis that we can deploy to other Java based app servers?

Have you tried the Debug player (and plug-in) with remote debugging? It
comes with Flash (look under the Players folder). You can run a Flash
program in the browser, and still use the debugger in Flash to debug.

There are other tools to debug in the runtime environment as well: object
browsers like ioDebug. However, most of the time I just use the simplest
debug method: insert 'trace' statements (or 'alert' & 'CFOUTPUT').

I agree Flash 5's XML implementation was less than perfect, some of the
functions were implemented in ActionScript and were slow. The good news is,
Flash MX's XML engine is rewritten from scratch and is implemented
natively - it is extremely fast.
