I'm so lucky that I maintain the computer lab I teach in, but I see a lot of public school teachers with their hands tied. If we'd like to make software for these teachers to use with their students, we'll have more success if it's web-deliverable.
Fortunately, there are tools that do that. Don't underestimate the fantastic expense Macromedia has gone to in order to create, and maintain, their plugins.
You will also note that all the other applications that make SWF files (which are not Flash) are extremely limited in their scope - primarily animation, and simple interactivity. The full range of scripting SWF is really available to Flash alone.
Piggy-backing, as I've mentioned, would be pretty foolhardy, as it would be crazy expensive, and it would rely on Adobe/Macromedia not modifying the plug in.
Perhaps the people operating under the browser limitations are selecting the wrong tool, and then expecting (or desiring) the tool to change in ways that are pretty much impossible?
