 Yes, but I would not consider it trivial.  You must extend the 
component creating the itemRenderers and modify it to pass in your 
additional data. 

 Most itemRenderers also have a ListData component, which has an owner 
attribute that give you hook into the list.  So if you can get to your 
data using that owner property, it may work for you.  Or you can create 
your own ListData component and modify your list based class to create 
your new ListData component instead of the built in one and pass that to 
itemRenderers. 

 You may also be able to use a singleton, conceptually similar to 
Cairngorm's ModelLocator to access the data "hanging out in the middle 
of nowhere".
