the last time i looked at this issue, writing flash applets with mxmlc meant that you can't use flash GUI controls. is that still true?

This is true, you don't have direct access to flash GUI controls from vanilla Flex. That being said, I have found it rare that I find a Flash control that hasn't been ported to Flex.
