Didn't think about that !
Anyways, this is an easy-to-fix problem for me and my FLA files...
Thanks for all this work !

i'm not sure i fully understand the problem- but as far as i understand, it comes from the fact that importing an SWF with swfmill wraps that into another movieclip hierarchy, breaking the "anim.myVar" reference. can this be true? i don't know much about variable references, but flash looks up anim in _root, no? thus, as there is an additional level of clips, it breaks.
if this is so- it wont be fixed. neither do i aim for "full compatibility" to the flash IDE, nor is the process the same-- or is the SWF imported into the IDE?
if i'm mistaken, please elaborate.
barring more details, i'll close the ticket as "wontfix".
