[flexcoders] this.addEventListener() in MXML

[Richard Rodseth]

I'm puzzled why this is OK:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:VBox
    xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml";
    initialize="init()"/>

but this is not:

<mx:VBox
    xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml";
    uiEvent="handleUIEvent()"/>

    <mx:Metadata>
       [Event(name="uiEvent",type="com.xyz.common.UIEvent")]
    </mx:Metadata>

UIEvent bubbles, and I wish to avoid adding a listener manually to each of
the dynamically-added children. I can add another container level or handle
the event in the controller, but it seemed like I should be able to add a
listener to "this" in MXML.
