I don’t think the example is going
to work since you’re trying to dispatch an anonymous object instead of an
Event. Flex 2 requires an Event to be dispatched.
There is mx.events.DynamicEvent which is a
subclass of Event that is dynamic. The constructor does take the “bubbles”
parameter so you can do with it what you will. I don’t know if any of
the events that the components dispatch are dynamic, I think probably not.

I still can't set bubbles =
true, though... bleh....
