Alex Harui commented on FLEX-34283:
-----------------------------------

We (or at least I) have been adding flags when there is "controversy" about 
correct behavior.  I'm not fully up to speed on this particular issue so maybe 
you can make it always work like 4.11 and still provide the desired behavior 
from the change that broke the 4.11 behavior.  Also, sometimes folks are 
counting on old "buggy" behavior and we have to weigh the cost of correctness.

Anyway, looks like Mike is staying on top of this, so if he's not concerned 
about breaking things then you're probably ok.  I just wanted to point out that 
you do have the option of adding a flag if it helps.

> Since 4.12, there seems to be a regression bug in XMLListCollection. The 
> scenario is:
> # The user selects an item in a list and clicks a button to create a copy of 
> this item below the selected one
> # Clone the item through {{item.copy()}}, make some modifications to this item
> # Add the item to the XMLListCollection using {{addItemAt}}, then call 
> {{refresh()}} on the collection
> # Inside some item renderers (not obviously the cloned one), XML item's 
> parent is null, and never get updated, which could cause runtime errors.
> Up to version 4.11, there has never been such problems. After a short 
> investigation, this problem may be caused by a change in {{XMLListAdapter}} 
> from [this 
> commit|https://github.com/apache/flex-sdk/commit/59dd2be7f6a9b0fda745249cf979adeac7f406b7].
>  
> Please find attached a sample program to reproduce the bug. Run the program, 
> select an item and click on the "Duplicate after" button. 
> When run in 4.11, you should see the following console trace :
