It doesn't look a good situation. I actually think it's better to fix nspluginwrapper should there be a problem. I have in plus also a VLC media player installed with a 64bit plugin for firefox. Downgrading firefox to 32bit means, I need VLC in 32bit as well... then I can as well just install the 32bit version of openSUSE...
and according flash: I actually never had a problem with it on the factory installation... I'm frequent user of youtube and of some flash game sites.. and this seems to work fine.
My Flash works also pretty well with latest nspluginwrapper. nspluginwrapper gets crazy very rarely. The left issue for me is the not-really-quite-well-working Acrobat. The Java issue should be fixed with Java 1.7 (icedtea or later on Sun). What probably doesn't help in the short term is the new "Plugin 2" from Sun's newest Java 1.6. It's not using the OJI interface anymore and will work through NPAPI and NPRuntime with Firefox 3 so it would be a candidate to be able to work with nspluginwrapper but I'm not sure since they had to make some changes to Firefox 3 to support it.
