Well, it's been a while but I've finally been able to get back to this. Unfortunately, there are cases where this simply won't work. For example:
[Bindable] public var d:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection([ new ArrayCollection([ {x:1, y:1, z:10}, {x:2, y:2, z:20}, {x:3, y:3, z:30}, ]), new ArrayCollection([ {x:1, y:1, z:20}, {x:2, y:2, z:30}, {x:3, y:3, z:10}, ]) ]); There is no way you can rearrange the second data such that it won't screw up one of the bubbles. I think I'm just going to have to get in there and hack at it to make it stop trying it's "smart" bubble rearranging.
