Because. Our design/usability folks think that is "best".
You should use Text, not TextArea for non-editable text.

Everyone, Why is there a blue border shown when using a textarea and it has been clicked on? To show it is in focus? Great, but why? How can this be removed? No, switching to Gumbo is not an option. How would you display a few paragraphs of text within you applications? Dis the designers of Flex believe it would never be used to show more than a couple lines of type? Thanks.
