I ran into the same problem when i wanted to align the label to the left.
However, i found that there is a reference to the label in the mx_internal
namespace.
override protected function updateDisplayList(unscaledWidth:Number,
unscaledHeight:Number):void
{
super.updateDisplayList(unscaledWidth, unscaledHeight);
var labelAlign_str:String = getStyle("labelAlign");
if (labelAlign_str == "left" && label.length)
{
var vm:EdgeMetrics = viewMetricsAndPadding;
var labelObject:UIComponent = mx_internal::labelObject as UIComponent;
labelObject.move(vm.left, labelObject.y);
};
};
This however does not work for you, since there is no equivalant for the
indicator. However, the indicator is added as a child to rawChildren, which
is public. This means you could reach it without problems.

Alex,
I understand exactly what you mean about testing requirements for public
method and I can really only speak to the FormItem class, but here's my
experience...
The first thing I wanted to do was change where the required field
asterisk is displayed; and put it in front of the label. No big deal right.
To do it all I need to do is override updateDisplayList
and move:
// Position the "required" indicator.
displayIndicator(left, y);
left += indicatorGap;
above
// Position our label.
if (labelObj)
{...
But there are calls to about 16 private methods or values within this
function which I would have to re-write to make this work. Ironically I
think all of those would work as written if I could just call them.
