A Flash file is just a file at one level. To think that it is somehow 
paired off against or contrary to struts in any way is not a correct 
perspective, in my view.  Essentially, the use of JFIF technology has its 
place, and, once worked on a bit, melds nicely with struts.  There is 
always the need for the sort of conceptual separation you get with a Model 
2 architecture for scale, anyway.  Right?  A Flash struts development 
project need not embed the swf files.  The issue, again, is not the 
reference TO the swf files.  That is a piece of cake.  The issue is mainly 
the references FROM the swf files, that is a bit hairy.

Again, the "talking" to the Flash can very well be a struts issue.  There 
are ways to do this that can be created, home-cooked, that make for really 
interesting applications, using i18n in Flash, for example.  Not that hard 
either.
