In flash it is possible to put an XML file at the
application level, where you can specify classes you don't want to use, to
reduce filesize.
For example you can skip FocusManager etc ... (http://www.peterjoel.com/blog/index.php?archive=2003_10_01_archive.xml#106600783287799254)
Will
there be something similar in Flex?

Flex only includes classes found in the dependency chain from
your application class (or configuration settings).
When you create an application that extends mx.core.Application,
you get a bunch of things that a toy application might not need,
but that a real-world application probably will.
A Flex app has a higher initial cost, but levels off.
Flex also allows you to write your own frameworks from scratch
in AS.

Flex has this today. See the "runtime-shared-libraries"
and "externs" and "external-library-path" configuration options.
