The first one was that when I wrote this example the had not been added to the framework yet. The second is that I wanted to illustrate how the layout placement and measurement has been removed from the container itself. This is great for us because we can now use the standard containers and write our own layouters. Containers with effects like the 3d carousel and cover-flow are now just a matter of writing a layouter not a whole new control. But yes, if you needed to use a container which had a fixed layout (would not need to change in your application) then hgroup and vgroup would work great. Hey Christoff,

Any of your flex 3 code will still compile just the way it is when using the http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml namespace. So its only when integrating the new gumbo components that this is a concern at all. Backwards compatibility with flex 3 is preserved. Hey Gareth,

That will cause quite a few backwards compatibility issues with my old code. I'm also not quite sure of the benefits this adds to the layout. Seems to be an unusual thing to change.
