This is very interesting. Is it just a matter of loading a Flash 8 fla,
and making a Flash 9 swf? Or would we need to convert from AS2 to AS3, etc.?

Yes. Just load it up, set the player version to 9 and away you go.
To answer my original question I did some digging and discovered that
people were having some issues
with FP9 occasionally crashing when using AS3. Although these may
have been fixed by now I decided that using AS3 with an alpha
development environment and a "v.0" player probably wasn't a good way
to go right now as using another player or dev environment would
require a rewrite back to AS2.0. As it is I'll stick to AS2 and the
FP9 player and if I have problems I can always downgrade.
