Sorry, strike all my FUD about TileList... I was think of Tile (which I was using inside of a scrollable container to get a smooth, fractional TileList). > Could you tell me a bit more about monkey patching?

Basically, if you create a class with the same package structure as the one in the SDK you want to replace (e.g., MyProject/src/mx/containers/TileList, or whatever) it'll override anything in a linked library. I had to do this with the DragManager (actually DragProxy) in order to get it to respect the mouseEnabled flag and to handle it equivalently to what the Flash Player does (which would make since, given that DragEvents are sub-classes of MouseEvents).
