Yeah it sounds good.
But I don't think it is that bad to make a direct call sometimes.
Something like onLoad(){myController.doneLoadingChild(this)}. Where
myController is a reference to the class that created the child element.
That reference was passed by the parent movie clip in the constructor.
Really depends on what situations do you plan to reuse that child class.
On the other hand the broadcasting method is very good but just a little
more work involved that maybe is not really necessary.
