FWIW, the new framework I'm working on is probably going to be less

This really worries me. Are you saying that we dont want to support FXG
in
FlexJS?
I eventually want to support everything, but time is of the essence, and I
am going to prioritize stuff that we can get done quickly and that performs
well. I'm not an expert, but I'm told that bitmaps work better in the GPU
than vectors.
It does not have to be an either-or choice. As I said, FXG supports
capability of skinning with just bitmaps.
I guess I don't understand what you mean. I've haven't seen too many FXG
files, but what percentage are bitmap only? I don't think I've seen that.
In my opinion; using "Bitmaps" in an FXG defeats the purpose of using
a vector format in the first place. Every FXG I've looked at inside the
Flex Framework does not use Bitmaps; but I've only looked at a handful.
