There are use cases for both. A good DI implementation will support
both.
I have a further goal that compile-time DI would be "legal
ActionScript" in
that you could output the AS that is going to run. (Sort of like the
-keep-generated-actionscript option today). That would make it a
whole lot
easier to debug.

Thats exactly what I was thinking.
So, something like,
[Inject]
private var test:Foo
for a singleton becomes
private var myFoo:Foo = Context.getInstance().foo;
and a factory if a singleton isn't required
private var myFoo:Foo = Context.getInstance().getFoo();
