flash.display.DisplayObjectContainer or mx.core.Container? DisplayObjectContainer has "add" events for when children are added. Container has "childAdd" event for when child components are created.

I know Flex waits to create some objects until just in time - this gets in the way of dynamic binding operations - hence I am looking for a way to look ahead to see if my target object exists yet, so I can force its creation if necessary.
