I see that DataGrid.focusOutHandler has the following, so it looks as though
I need a different approach:
// however, if we're losing focus to anything other than the editor
or the grid
// hide the editor;
if (itemEditorInstance && (!event.relatedObject ||
!itemRendererContains(itemEditorInstance, event.relatedObject)))
{
// trace("call endEdit from focus out");
endEdit(DataGridEventReason.OTHER);
