dcresource and it turns out it has a continuous flash mode specifically for what you're talking about
: "The other continuous mode on the Exilim EX-FH20 is for shooting with the flash. The camera can take anywhere from 3 - 10 shots in a row at 1, 3, or 5 frames/second -- with the flash." Looking at the specs, it does sacrifice some flash range for the ability to do so, but if you're just taking pictures of people inside then you should do alright. The feature seems to be accessible by sub-menu on various other more compact Casio cameras but the FH20 seems to be the one where it's best implemented.
Even without the flash most cameras take a couple seconds to write to the memory card. Using the flash just makes it agonizingly long. It looks like that's something I'll have to live with or shell out for a really nice camera.
