If your renderer implements the IDropInListItemRenderer (something like that), you can access the dataProvider (or get the dataProvider from the model) then you can use getChildIndex() for a collection or childIndex() in xml to get the item index. If that index equals the dataProvider.length - 1, it is the last item.
I have used this technique to dynamically number the lines in a DataGrid. That example is www.cflex.net <http://www.cflex.net/> I believe.

Very nice solution, Valdhor, thank you. I do, however, need it for the very last row of data (visible or non-visible). In the meantime, I've added an extra property to my data that will allow me to get what I need. So, instead of figuring out what label to put on a button by deciphering whether the renderer is rendering the last row of data, I just use a new 'label' property. Maybe a bit hackish, but it works. Thank you for your help.
