A sober look at whether to extend or reimplement limited features in Flex: http://jessewarden.com/2008/01/when-you-hit-a-design-brick-wall-in-flex.html
- Example of TabNavigator and TabBar,
  - No depth (depth is basically hard coded to -1)
- custom buttons, custom panel, titlewindow
- monkey patched frameworks making changes to mx_internal and private
