Genius! This helped me tremendously. I was wondering the same thing. It may be interesting to the Flex designers that this is, by no mean, an obvious solution to the problem. Perhaps it's the name "PopUp". Somehow that relates directly to things like dialogs and alerts.
Certainly my own mistake, but it wasn't obvious.
