Just guessing, but I think it's required for the Flex Component Kit, when you
create swc's to be used in Flex.
Haven't really looked into it in much detail, but so far couldn't get swc's to work if
"Declare..." was disabled.
Other than that, I totally agree, most annoying feature ever.

The issue is that in Flash you are using the terrible awful
why-did-Adobe-put-it-in-there publish option of "Automatically Declare
Stage Instances". It's the worst thing in the world and causes many
people headaches.
Turn it off. It's the dumbest thing Adobe could have ever made.
SHIFT+F12, click on the AS version Settings button, and deselect
"Automatically Declare Stage Instances".
Always always ALWAYS declare your stage instances in your classes.
