I forgot to respond to this earlier. Some inline responses:

I forgot about EventDispatcher. I was thinking it’s a simple object. You’re 
right. There is a memory hit.

Benchmarks I saw. I did not do testing myself, but getter access seems to be 
really fast.

Wrapping was the wrong word. I meant subclassing.

We had all kinds of typing issues related to events. When you have your 
toolchain, I’ll work on creating an itemized list of issues and we’ll see if 
you can fix them all… ;-)

Great. Let’s go for it.

Anything is fine with me. js even? This might all be temporary, so the exact 
name of the URI does not concern me very much.

I’m sorry for being so difficult. If you can solve the problems — that’s fine 
with me. FWIW, I consider your vast experience the greatest asset the Flex 
project has and I value your opinion greatly. My opinion comes from a lot of 
frustration related to the subclassing. If you can fix all that and prove me 
wrong, I’m a happy camper… ;-)

Thanks,
