So something I've been doing is binding properties I don't care about to 
functions that take a bindable parameter, so that essentially, I have a 
function call occuring whenever the bindable variable changes.
There's probably a quick way to do this that's more legit (and less 
feature-obsurity-inherent).

for example
[Bindable] public var s:String;
public function doAlert(somestring:String):uint
{
mx.controls.Alert.show(somestring);
return 0;
}

<Canvas margin="{doAlert(s)}"/>

Will give me an alert if s is ever changed. Is there a line of actionscript I 
can use to quickly just establish the doAlert as an eventlistener on s?

Thanks,

Seth
