Agreed, I just meant the loading itself should be moved up as a service.
Possibly moving toward an hosting application service.

The latest findings are:

        1) getBytesTotal() and getBytesLoaded() just return the value of
           _bytesTotal and _bytesLoaded (loosly typed, tested with 
XML.prototype.*).

        2) load() loads and calls onData for objects, but not for movieclips,
           this could be due to the fact that is not 'load' itself calling 
onData
           but rather maybe calls a virtual progress (or completion) handler 
which
           defaults to calling onData and is overridden by MovieClip to don't 
do that.

 //mcref = createEmptyMovieClip('mc', 1);
 mcref = {};
 trace(typeof(mcref));
 mcref.load = XML.prototype.load;
 mcref.load("test.xml");
 mcref.onData = function() { trace('orig mc onData called with args: 
'+arguments); };
 mcref.onData('test');
