I have just read over this thread and want add my 2 cents in.
There are different ways to achieve your desired results without such
changes.
With the list of countries why not use a HashMap for related data;
var vo:Country = {className:"Brazil"};
// factory implementation
inst = new MovieClip();
var _rendererHashMap[UIDUtil.getUID(inst)] = vo;
with the reference to data object you should be able to apply what ever you
want!
Also,
Unless you can you can turn timeline editing off in Flash 9 I don't see how
sprite can be an option to extend.
