I remember there was an effort to make fewer things bindable in Spark (there is a cost to making something bindable). In theory, your label should be bound to a data model or presentation model and not to each other.

With MX components, this could be done. Looking at the Adobe code, seems like they removed (or forgot) the binding on the text property for Spark. Is there a reason for this change, or is this a bug?
