Sounds like the one constant here is the under performance of some project managers, who in a Nokia like fit, squandered a five year engineering lead, and are now promising that, yet again, it will be fixed sometime closer to the end of the year, so when a delay is announced it will be lost on all of the holiday party invitations.

Update after update of Vmware is released with only incremental improvements in the GUI problems.

The HTML 5 client is declared by management, but the Update Manager team announces that it's finally done Porting the Update Manage to Flash. So management cuts development of the one working client, the clunky but feature complete installed client. They are also maintaining 3 development, test and supprt teams, one for each GUI. Keep in mind at this point they are still dependent on the installed client for the update manager and other core functionality.

In the end, the team people who made a crap Flash application weren't able to fix it, so management hired a team of HTML5 developers to write a new 'New GUI'. Each release fiddled with a few things but never really addressed the big issues(like the update manager being absent entirely). People pointed out that their new Flash GUI was obsolete by the day it was releases. That team copied the first teams mistakes, and then added their own. The team did what web developers tend to do, try to re-write the desktop app as inside a browser, using Flash. In the end, the team people who made a crap installable application weren't able to fix it, so management hired a team of web developers to write a new GUI. (Ever tried the Flash client via Puffin on an iPad? You were probably the first, poor unlucky sod, but you got what you deserved right?) Or they could have just made a less crap version of the standalone tools, and dispensed with the nine dimensional compatibility matrix from hell of every OS/browser/platform/plugin combo that no-one will ever actually test. This choice has been available for years: it's nothing new, nothing scary and nothing bad - however it is different to the blinkered mindset of a desktop developer.

Not an attempt by desktop developers to pretend that trying to replicate a desktop application in a browser is a remotely good idea and in doing so foolishly duplicating everything the browser already had available using custom code - which always fails somewhere. The sensible choice would have been a web application. Flash or Java were the only technologies that could have done what they needed to at the time.

The main choice was if they did a web based solution (to get more than just WIndows management) or stick with heavy clients needing to be installed. Java applets disappeared so much quicker than Flash has, so it was a better choice in hindsight.ДЄ choice of stupid A or stupid B still results in a stupid choice. Flash has never been an embedded or safe choice - commonly found on insecure systems, yes, but never safe. Almost exactly the same stupid move as trying to hack together a desktop modal application in a browser using Flash or JavaScript. Java in the browser is, and always was a stupid move.

At the time, Flash was very embedded and a safe choice with the only other choice being Java in the browser.
