Will,

I wasn't suggesting that MonoDevelop support S.W.F design. I'm not hacking - 
and I don't have any _immediate_ plans to. I was looking for a clear 
definition of the target end-user. I'm interested in MonoDevelop as an 
end-user, and from the MonoDevelop website which I'm looking to help 
develop.
