I like that idea, so long as there is not a big 'impedance mis-match' that causes an inefficient swf implementation. I think swf9 will effectively have XmlHttpRequest, so that will be a win.
One issue is the 'synchronous' option, which I can't imagine being easy to simulate in swf (but it is very nice for trivial uses).
