Text wrapping bug in TextField

We use textfield control extensively in our app. It has an issue with text wrapping that causes app to go in infinite layout cycle.

This problem occurs because text wrapping algorithm makes textfield height different in each rendering cycle.

This problem is not reproducible in IDE in debug mode. It occurs in installed .air app.

Steps to reproduce:

1) Make adobe air project and paste the code below in main mxml file.

2) Generate .air installer

3) install the app

4) Click in textfield

5) Move mouse outside textfield( but remain within app).

6) Note. Textfield textwrapping goes in to a cycle where it get confused and textfield height is differnt in each rendering cycle.
