Carol, with mx:Datagrid you can prevent a edit session from ending by calling preventDefault on sessionEditEnd event. There is no way to achieve the same with the spark datagrid. Being able to capture the sessionEditEnd allow me to use a generic item editor and instead of implementing validate() in the itemEditor, I can listen to the sessionEditEnd, once the event is fired, it willl run my listener function and call preventDefault() if my data isn't valid, which prevents the session to be terminated.
