Well what should happen is flash is pulled from Adobe's own repo, and since they're pulling from a repo anyway, yum should do what its designed to do and pull in all the i386 deps flash needs in the same transaction. There's no need for it to be in the default install or on the install media, as far as flash is concerned.
I was not even referring to Flash this time. An even larger problem from stripping i386 from a x86_64 default install is you don't get i386 Input Method support. A great many 32bit software stops working properly, the user has no idea why, and there is no simple yum groupinstall command capable of fixing this.
Your naive suggestion fails in this case, because there is no way you will get all of that 3rd party software to have deps on all possible language packages.
