addEventListener() requires you to specify what kind of event you're listening for. However, any event dispatched by a UIComponent can be intercepted because UIComponent overrides dispatchEvent() to pass the event to an dispatchEventHook function that you can set. The static var for this hook function is mx_internal and therefore undocumented and subject to change or removal without warning.

Cheers and have a good weekend! Nick
