I just found this by Miguel: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4028356/monotouch-dialogs-ownerdrawnelement-highlight-not-working
The OwnerDrawnElement was a contribution from the community, and it is not as sophisticated as it should be. I would not depend on it for anything beyond the trivially basic. I strongly recommend that you create your own Element, if you want to reuse some of the code for OwnerDrawElement, you could copy and paste that. So perhaps I should be just deriving from *Element* and overriding *GetCell*. Is that too low-level? What's the best practice here? Thanks!
