Hi there,
I think this problem is a huge mess! I found myself
feeling really paranoid about trying the stacks due
to the nasty sounding dialogs.
There has to be a better solution or people will not
adopt using the plug-in.
Just my 2 cents.

I have to agree that the generic warning is a little too scary to
encourage widespread adoption.
An example of too many dialogs preventing adoption is Shockwave.
Even with 60% of people having Shockwave installed, clients tend not
to want to use it because installing the plugin has opt-out add-ons,
and if you access content on another valid site for the same
company, Shockwave would show that security dialog. With the latest
Shockwave version you can now check the crossdomain.xml policy file,
and so at last can get around that issue for using content on
another one of the client's sites.
Flash security is extremely tough and limiting, and manages to do
all that without having to bother the user with permission dialogs.
About 15 years of effort has gone into the thinking behind how
Shockwave and Flash security is handled, so there is a chance that
some of what they have done is a good way to work.
So, Rev stacks online for your relatives to see your work is fine,
but for real large client work it won't succeed if every user that
uses the piece has to cope with security and permissions dialogs,
because clients will tell you to use Flash instead.
