 Hi all:
  
 I have a custom component derived from VBox with a specific styleName.
 When used in a Repeater, or stand-alone, the styles are perfect.
  
 However, when I use the custom component in a List by setting the
 itemRenderer property of the List component, the fonts are all wrong 
and
 the text in Button labels are getting truncated.
  
 During debugging, I found the Flex 3 List component causes item
 renderers to inherit styles! It actually sets the styleName to the
 instance variable of the List component!
