I'm firmly of the opinion that we need to get the flex parts out there. I don't care how but we need part numbers and parts and every length that has appeared in a set. In my opinion it is quite terrible for users of LDraw to have no easy access to usable parts that could be auto-generated in seconds by some of us.
So far the release has been held because of technical issues with the library. This is no reason to not have the parts out there as we can always replace them if a decision is made.

So my proposal:
1) We quickly come up with a naming system
2) We auto-generate self-contained parts in all appropriate lengths (I already have perl code for this)
3) We submit one of these to the Part Tracker
4) Once it is certified we adjust the others to take into account comments and put them up
4) If the system is changed in the future we auto-generate again
