Rather than setting up some kind of binding mechanism to the view
state, which still may be better (don't know), I'm doing something
like this, in which a Presenter (controller) puts the View in one of
its view states (using a public method defined on the View's
interface), and the parent loops through its child components to set
their view states to match. 

// VIEW STATE Setter -- Called by Presenter to change view state for user
            public function setViewState(state:String):void
            {
                //Sets parent's view state
                this.currentState = state;
                
                //Parent controls child component view states
                // TODO: Make recursive to get through various wrapper 
components
                var children:Array=this.getChildren();
                for (var i:String in children)
                {
                        children[i].currentState = this.currentState;
                }
            }   

Using this technique, the children would have to define the same view
states as the parent. 

Is there a cleaner way? Is this unnecessarily processor intensive?
Please let me know.  

Thanks,
Bruce
