You've finally sold me on trying this out, but I have a question: I'm currently using JSFL to export several different versions of my source files (different compilations with different character sets embedded). Is there a way to use either FLASC or MTASC to compile through JSFL? I'm guessing not, as these involve changes to the content of the FLA file, not just the code. But could I make various template swfs and use MTASC (with or without FLASC) to recompile all of them at once?
