Well, it's been a while but I've finally been able to get back to this.
Unfortunately, there are cases where this simply won't work. For example:
[Bindable] public var d:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection([
new ArrayCollection([
{x:1, y:1, z:10},
{x:2, y:2, z:20},
{x:3, y:3, z:30},
]),
new ArrayCollection([
{x:1, y:1, z:20},
{x:2, y:2, z:30},
{x:3, y:3, z:10},
])
]);
There is no way you can rearrange the second data such that it won't screw
up one of the bubbles.
I think I'm just going to have to get in there and hack at it to make it
stop trying it's "smart" bubble rearranging.
