Flash is a much richer language/environment than you'd ever imagine if you've
just seen it being used to generate annoying demos. It's a fully-featured
programming language that is one of the main contenders for future
application delivery -- that's any form of application, not just annoying
graphics.

Given that, increasingly, the browser *is* the platform these days, not
integrating into a browser is a serious limiting factor into REBOL's reach.
I seem to remember that there was an IE-only REBOL plug-in at one point. So
it is possible; it just hasn't been carried through all the way.
