Its not a matter of putting the hacks back in since they have never been in
the jabberd2 code in the first place.

Also IMO it would be a bad idea to use Flash as an enterprise development
platform, its not really suited to that purpose IMO and you will be limiting
yourself using it, IMO for proper enterprise web applications you would be
far better using Java. Also I would highly question the observation of yours
that Flash is becoming a platform of choice for enterprise development, all
the evidence ive seen shows that Java is the platform of choice for proper
enterprise development as evidenced with all the WebSphere stuff from IBM,
all the JBoss stuff etc etc.
