Feature Request: Embed to JS

[renaun]

There are many ways this can be done, and full embedding might be possible in the future with base64 injection. But I believe people might want an easy option to also just load at runtime.

Feature Request:
AS3:

package
{
    public class AssetEmbeds_1x
    {
    [Embed(source="../media/textures/1x/atlas.xml", mimeType="application/octet-stream")]
    public static const AtlasXml:Class;

    [Embed(source="../media/textures/1x/atlas.png")]
    public static const AtlasTexture:Class;
    }
}

JS Snippet of relevant parts:

AssetEmbeds_1x.Embed$AtlasXml = function () {this.source = "../media/textures/1x/atlas.xml";
this.mimeType = "application/octet-stream";};
AssetEmbeds_1x.AtlasXml = AssetEmbeds_1x.Embed$AtlasXml;

AssetEmbeds_1x.Embed$AtlasTexture = function () {this.source = "../media/textures/1x/atlas.png";};
AssetEmbeds_1x.AtlasTexture = AssetEmbeds_1x.Embed$AtlasTexture;

Dependency:
Class name to use in the compiler output, hard code to flash.utils.Embed or make it a compiler option. I vote for hard code for now. Developers will have to write the flash.utils.Embed class, but an example of the class will be provided later.

lets discuss tomorrow. i am just not 100% sure that this makes sense in the browser
