You are right and that's 2 years or so I didn't touch the IntelliJ API, so, 
can't remember if we worked on the NS or not.

Yep and now I'm not sure anymore, I still need to confirm or infirm I can 
switch on Facet as I can't remember for sure how the Flex Plugin considers it 
is a Flex SDK or not, that's a long time and I will need to dig into again.

One question for the Flash Develop guys though, how are the intelli-sense / 
refactoring / code navigation / hints and other IDE facilities including maven 
integration compared to IntelliJ, do we have a comparative table ?

Thanks,
Frédéric THOMAS
