I did this recently, and it didn't cause havoc. What are seeing that goes wrong? I had two issues that I did needed to fix. One is that you have to remember to remove the child from the stage before adding it back to the application. The second is that the bindings were reexecuted when added back to the application, which I worked around by checking for the same value in the places I was observing bindings. -Brian
