The problem is that nspluginwrapper actually can make problems

flash on it's own works perfectly fine but as soon as I wrap it I

problems I had
on flash when they were really nspluginwrappers fault.

Works perfectly fine? Or appears to work perfectly fine? What if
flash is behaving badly and doing something...not malicious..but wrong
and potentially damaging...that nspluginwrapper stops?

I'm not saying that using nspluginwrapper is a bad idea but the
current implementation doesn't work very well. How does introducing a
well known problem provide a good solution to preventing a potential one?

I think you'll appreciate nspluginwrapper when flash plugin crashes and
takes whole browser to hell...It's definitely your choose ;-)

The current nspluginwrapper implementation is not perfect but some
people prefer browser stability...

But that's the point. For quite a few people browser stability actually *decreases* when nspluginwrapper is installed.
