By "users" I mean people watching flash movies written by people they
have never met. Letting flash authors know, yes.

How about Gnash automatically mailing any Flash syntax errors to the
author of the flash movie being played? :D :D

Again "users" -> "flash developers doing testing with gnash"
However, yes, that is a field that is not addressed by the adobe stuff at all

That depends where we take Gnash. Once flash objects can contain URLs
and load other flash movies within or instead of themselves, it
becomes a parallel universe to the web.
