So I guess your question really is about the implications of using mx_internal in your code. Basically if you use mx_internal you can assume you'll have to recompile your code with every upgrade to the Flex framework. That's because Adobe engineers won't give a second thought before changing these internal APIs (while on the other hand Adobe is very careful not to break existing clients by making incompatible changes to public APIs).
