Amy, Tac, thanks for your input.  This situation feels like a step backward for 
me - yes I know how the current SDK likes to have things decoupled, but when 
I'm working through this and having to re-skin and code around the Spark 
FormItem container, it just feels like a lot of work for what should be simple.

Maybe I'm just crabby this morning but...

Jeff
