[Peter Huppertz]

Just to bump this issue again. Bubbling would make my piece extremely more simple. Any idea what's wrong?

If you have a page of components, then you can put an event handler on the page itself for, say, rollOver, and then in the page's rollOver event handler, you can get event.currentTarget for the actual icon being rolled over (I think rollOver bubbles). That can lead to seriously effiecient code compared to having to set up event handlers on each icon. The help will tell you which events bubble,
