[flexcoders] 100% wide VBox causing space on left to appear

[Lincoln Mitchell]

In the following example unwanted space appears on the left of the screen
which then causes the horizontal scroll bar to appear. It seems to be caused
by having width="100%" on the VBox. Is this a bug?

Example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:ApolloApplication xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml";
  backgroundColor="green" paddingLeft="0" paddingTop="0" paddingRight="0"
  paddingBottom="0">
  <mx:VBox width="100%" backgroundColor="red">
    <mx:TextInput width="100" height="600"/>
  </mx:VBox>
</mx:ApolloApplication>

Any help appreciated.
