RE: MultiBitmapSource

Is raising a JIRA directly the right approach to proposing new features or 
behavior change (such as the one below)?

Thanks

Hi Community,

MultiBitmapSource getSource(dpi) method is called 3 times in the SDK with 
exactly the same code:

     var app:Object = FlexGlobals.topLevelApplication;
                var dpi:Number;
                if ("runtimeDPI" in app)
                    dpi = app["runtimeDPI"];
                else
                    dpi = DensityUtil.getRuntimeDPI();
                var multiSource:Object = 
MultiDPIBitmapSource(source).getSource(dpi);


Wouldn't it be better to have this code embedded in the MultiBitmapSource 
getSource() method ?

The desiredDPI:Number arg could be made optional, so as not to break existing 
code, and use the above code when desiredDPI is NaN .

Another advantage of this is that it will allow to use MBS with other classes, 
such as BitmapAssets.

What do you think?

Maurice
