I realize my reply doesn't really answer you question (you were asking about displaying the image rather than downloading it back), but I think it must be also possible. You can access to the file raw data as a ByteArray, but you still have to convert that into a bitmap (or bitmapdata first?).
It's possible in Flex: http://blog.flexexamples.com/2008/08/25/previewing-an-image-before-uploading-it-using-the-filereference-class-in-flash-player-10/ So, I think it should be possible in plain Actionscript.
