Hello Marcus,

I agree that this would be something valuable in a formal context (for List or 
maybe a sub-class) for the SDK. 

In the meantime though, I managed to cobble together something quickly for a 
mobile mock-up that I was working on from this post: 
http://corlan.org/2011/07/04/creating-flex-mobile-section-lists/

There are things there that might not be best practice, but this as an idea for 
how to work it with renderers. I got round the sizing of the "header" against 
my "items" by using the minHeight property on the renderer.

By the way everyone - congratulations on 4.10!

All the best,

Mick
