The List class is doing a find-by-key. (Try "A", "B", etc). You probably need to use a high priority or capture phase listener and call stopImmediatePropagation if you handle DELETE

I have come across a very strange bug in Flex. If I have a list of items, and I want the user to be able to use the "Delete" key in order to delete an item from the list (or DataGrid) I can not get focus on the right element when on item starts with "." When I try to retrieve the target for the key event it has changed to the item starting with ".". Just look at the sample here, try selecting an item and press delete. You will see focus coming onto the item with the ".." http://devblog.ezmo.com/ryggsekk/KeyMappingTest/KeyMappingTest.html <http://devblog.ezmo.com/ryggsekk/KeyMappingTest/KeyMappingTest.html> Anyone else who's seen this bug?
