That's true Tim, even we use MVC framework and
Event propagation to achieve such kind of mechanism.
But for novice user, they can try that too.
Although not the best way.

Subject: [flexcoders] Re: How to call container's method into component file
That's bad advice Rishi; that leads to tight coupling and "parent abuse". It's
ok to have a parent call a method on a child ( data binding is preferred
though). But, children shouldn't call methods directly on their parents.
Instead, have the child component dispatch an event to initiate the save method
on the parent.
