I tried Gnash and it's good to have such a nice tool.
One cons: as it was already reported, it is really slow. I read that
it is recommended to get a 3D card to cope with that.

However these days, all the 3D cards out there require proprietary
drivers to be useful in this regard.

The situation is not that sad, even though it's problematic at the moment.

The main reason to develop a Cairo (or other 2D backend) is for speed, as well as a smaller footprint for embedded devices. I'm currently stuck running without any hardware acceleration (ATI cards suck...), and on a P4, it's ok, but definitely slow. Right now the Cairo backend isn't fully functional, but could be if somebody felt like focusing on this task.
