Michael,
Problem is that ComboBase uses a textInput control to display the
currently selected item. The TextInput is limited to displaying a
single line of text.
You could certianly change this, but, it seems as though it will
require extending ComboBox, not just making an itemRenderer.

The PopUpManager.createPopUp method calls addPopUp which, as part of
the method seems to ensure that the new Popup is on top.
After it is created, you could manually move it around using
setChildIndex... a good place to look is at PopUpManager.bringToFront
Hope that help a little,

You are correct. By default the dataField on DataGridColumn only goes
to the root level of the structure you are passing.
If you are feeling a little ambitious, you can subclass dataGridColumn

I would probably write a simple component that serves as an
itemRenderer. From within that component I would be to launch a
modal popup window from the itemEditBeginning event. Ensure that you
pass the row and the dataGridColumn (much like a labelFunction) to
the new popup.
In flex, children are generally not created until they are actually
needed, which generally translates to: when they are displayed on the
screen. This keeps startup time and memory use down as, on average,
most users do not navigate to every corner of an app.
