Description

Flex SDK 4.6 require a minimum FlashPlayer version of 11.1.

From a quick look this is related to the new spark validator classes (spark.validators.) using FlashPlayer 11 globalisation classes (flash.globalization.).

In particular enterprises can be slow to update Flash Player versions and this would enable a smoother upgrade path to people currently on 4.5 SDK (in a Flash player 10.3 environment) to the new Apache Flex 4.x SDK.
