Not agree.
Modern JS frameworks are supporting "hot reload" (Royale not yet) which
means the browser view is refreshing automatically after any code
change/compilation... and depending on the framework and project, this just
takes seconds or milliseconds. So, you see the results in near realtime
instead of waiting for the compiler and restarting your app all the time.
Hence my hope that someone will make live-editing of Royale MXML work. IMO,
Any IDE DesignView equivalent that doesn't use a browser to render is going to
have fidelity issues. Live-editing has the potential to be even better than
hot-reload for some scenarios.
Of course, I could be wrong...
