Greetings from JetBrains!
Yes, we are looking forward to Falcon to fully replace legacy
mxmlc/compc compiler!
I don't think we'll use it for code highlighting/analysis because
IntelliJ IDEA platform is based on its own AST parsing mechanism. And
looks like IntelliJ IDEA already has all features that Falcon may bring
to other IDEs. So what we are looking forward is:
- instant background incremental compilation
- global Problems View
IntelliJ IDEA already has these features for Java projects and I hope
will have for ActionScript/Flex as soon as Falcon is released.

asking us if they can integrate Falcon.
I bet if we discussed it with JetBrains, they would be game.
