Well, I use it sometimes as an update broadcast mecanism. Let's say I
have some value objects floating around, and when I change a property on
any of these, I use the watch to broadcast an event if for example the
value has changed (by testing the newValue and the oldValue).

Yes, you are missing the fact that this is just a technology preview.
You should expect things to work unexpectedly, and you should report
issues to Adobe, instead of ranting on a mailing list.
If you need a production-ready AS3 editor, use FlexBuilder2.

It's time to stop holding on to the past and live in the
present. It's 2006. You've had four years to upgrade your
OS (XP is built on 2000, after all). That's like 28 years
for a dog.
If you find the speed of technology to be too fast for you,
or you find Moore's law inconvenient,
I use Win2000 when working - there is no reason to use XP for us. I can
upgrade to XP whenever I choose, I just know I'll have fewer problems using
Win2000, etc.
