So one of the things I see come up every now and then is people asking about Flash based video sites like YouTube, and how well they will work on the Pandora. And the usual answer that seems to come up is that a browser addon would be needed that would replace requests for flash objects with another video player, requiring configuration for each site.

What I've not yet seen, is anyone mention the SWFDec or Gnash projects, which aspire to run Flash apps. Both projects are already able to play YouTube videos. There are even ARM builds for each.

What say ye?
 
You must not have looked hard - almost every thread that mentions Flash support also has a mention of Gnash/swfdec. We've been discussing that for way over a year.
