Seth, I think you're looking for a way to notify multiple views/other elements when a command is complete. Cairngorm maps a single command to a single event. It doesn't prescribe much about what to do when the event is done, but provides ViewLocator to find the views you might need to update.

You could use web services! Works like a bomb. If using cairngorm, a rewrite to Remote Objects when Flex 2.0 ships is a matter of changing Services.mxml. If you want remoting but don't want to wait for 2.0, you could use FlashORB Remoting .NET 1.5 in the mean time (or forever, possibly)
