Just one comment regarding the text export from Photoshop ... It is actually possible to export text layers also into Text nodes in FXD rather than just bitmaps. You have to uncheck the export option "Rasterize Texts" in the export dialog (maybe also check the option "Embedd Fonts" in case you are not using system fonts) and you should get something like this in FXD content:
               Group  {
                    content: [
                         Text  {
                              x : 210.00
                              y : 159.00
                              fill : Color.rgb(0x7f, 0x7b, 0x1a)
                              stroke : null
                              textOrigin : TextOrigin.BASELINE
                              font: Font.fontFromURL( "MyriadPro-Regular.ttf", 36.00)
                              content : "This is simple text\n12\n34\n"
               },However it works correctly only for text layers using single font style. In case you combine two different styles within one text layer (e.g. changed size, color, etc) than whole text will be displayed using the first style only. This is caused by implementation reason - it is difficult to obtain bounds of styled text fragments in the Photoshop runtime.
