Red Mantis - Feature Idea

Well I was sitting here eating my Wendy’s meal and thinking about Red Mantis. Well I notice a lot of portfolio websites like to show off with Flash. I know you can load external variables with Flash, especially ActionScript 3.0

So my question to you is what if you wanted to do a flash navigation or header for your own template, then you would need to pull the pages data from the database and input it into the Flash file, so quite possibly you could export the database information either into an ActionScript (.as) format or to a flat file (.txt) then input the variables into the flash. Now in my opinion, I wouldn’t want to export all posts to a flat file and then input all that information into a flash file so maybe just the navigation to make animated headers…

NOTE: This is just an idea, not a confirmed feature
