Sorry for the cross-post, but I'm trying to get some more exposure for
this issue in hopes of a resolution/workaround.

My desired deployment model for my AIR app is a shell app that loads
Modules dynamically. What I'm running into is that the only location
that AIR will let me load a module from is from the app-resource
directory. The problem here is that I cannot programmatically update
modules, as I am not allowed to write to the app-resource directory. And
any attempts to load my modules from a server fail with "SWF is not a
loadable module".  I've tried crossdomain.xml on the server side, but no
dice.  I've tried writing my modules to the app-storage directory, which
I can do, but any attempts to load from this directory are met with the
same error.

Why does crossdomain.xml fail?  Is it because the AIR app doesn't have a
domain per se?  Tracing ApplicationDomain.currentDomain.parentDomain
returns null.  

It would be nice to have at least a workaround, and to know that this is
a bug that will be addressed. All input appreciated.
