Description

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create any MX container, e.g. VBox.
2. Create any component, e.g. Button.
3. Register listeners for FlexEvent.ADD and FlexEvent.REMOVE events on the component created in the Step 2.
4. Add the component created in the Step 2 to the MX container created in the Step 1.
5. Remove the component created in the Step 2 from the MX container created in the Step 1.

Actual Results:
