We apologize for the instability of composr.app and appreciate your patience. We are working on the statistics addon and trying to find an optimal way to store and render data. Unfortunately, we have yet to find a solution that can handle the traffic (and therefore, tens of millions of statistical records) of composr.app. We're working hard on one.
I asked if they'd do a discount for an alternative Open Source licence, but they politely declined.
swfupload is workable, as is plain HTML -- so we will wait until someone wants to sponsor a plupload OEM license, or until ocProducts potentially makes another investment cycle.
I think there wasn't much need to have a Flash fallback for v10 anyway.
We could have gone with a simple HTML 5 solution as both XHR 2 and the File API are widely supported now except for IE 8 and 9 (about 6% marketshare combined) for which we can just show a plain ol' input[type=upload]. :)

Besides, we do need to support IE9 first-class for at least another few years.
