Experimenting, I found that an swf8 with externalinterface actionscript (compiled by
an external Flash IDE) can be embedded as a resource inside a laszlo app, and then
used to send/receive data via externalinterface API.
The problem to solve is then getting these exchanges to/from the host openlaszlo app
containing the embedded swf8 resource.
My question is.. can there be a localconnection between the embedded swf8 and the
host openlaszlo app ... to convey changes to/from the host openlaszlo app?
In other words, is it feasible to use the embedded swf8 as an "externalinterface
gateway" between openlaszlo and HTML wrapper _javascript_?
If feasible, how is a localconnection object coded in openlaszlo-3.1?
Any docs / threads describing this?

Clues:
In a thread in openlaszlo forum (on embed.js) this reply from Max refers to a
"localconnection object "..
"Next, h.swf is loaded by h.html (or the iframe with h.html's contentw rewritten) with
query string arguments. h.swf starts up and uses a localconnection object to send
an event into the other Flash instance - the LZX app. Both flash instances must have
the same connuid to be able to communicate. This prevents multiple instances of
history-enabled LZX applications in different windows from interfering with each other.
Currently, this also prevents more than one app in the same window from working
with history or lzsetcanvasattribute. "
and found some more reference to use of "localconnection object" here ..
