I'd love to hear how FunFX works out for you. We are currently using some extensions I wrote to Selenium to test our Flex (2.0.1) UI. It is working pretty well for us. There was some talk last year of making it open source this year but I'm not sure what approvals/time I will get to facilitate this.
Basically we add our new commands to the user-extensions.js file in the Selenium Core, they reach into the application through the Flex-Ajax bridge and a command handler finds components and dispatches events from the application root. Very doable and with Flex 3 automation package, I imagine much more can be done now.
