My point is, that most RIAs may not easily translate to html using XSLT. We need to provide the reference for how to make a FlexJS RIA available to search engines. If you have an hour to contribute to FlexJS, I would much rather have you work on that than on XSLT. But of course, you are free to do what you want. I am surprised by the complexity of [1]. But because we have a tool chain, I wonder if the tool chain should somehow help. Should we have a tool that calls PhantomJS or some equivalent?
