Description

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a custom MXML component based on s:TextInput and name it MyTextInput.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:TextInput xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark">
</s:TextInput>

2. Add MyTextInput component to the main application.
3. Compile.

Actual Results: error:

Multiple initializer values for default property, 'text', of type 'String'. MyTextInput.mxml /test3/src/views line 6 Flex Problem

Expected Results: No error. Subclass of TextArea doesn't cause this error.

Workaround (if any): Add <s:text></s:text> tag.
