I believe Drupal has some flex integration... But I am not sure about  
the degree of this.

There are of course many other CMS systems that has rich frontend,
for example there are blogging desktop applications that can directly
interact with a webside using a blogging API rather then using HTML  
forms.
I am personally using a application to create my gallery... rather  
then uploading images in a HTML tool
one by one...
We use FTP Desktop tools to upload content to servers...

Flash based RIA's (and now also Silverlight) are now days not only  
used to represent
information, but also to manage information.

So what I am trying to say... that now days we already use such RIA  
tools to manage
content partially, wy not use such a tool to manage content of a CMS?
