   So at least a simple workaround might be something like:
   ```
   <fx:Declarations>
           <mx:ArrayCollection id="myDP">
               <fx:Object label="{compute('scp')}" data="scp"/>
               <fx:Object label="{compute('ftp')}" data="ftp"/>
           </mx:ArrayCollection>
   </fx:Declarations>
   ```
   
   And :  
   `<mx:ComboBox  width="250" top="30" dataProvider="{myDP}"/>`
   
   I think that would mean that the earlier bindings should run first, before the dataProvider assignment binding, because iirc they are processed (at startup/addedToParent) in the order of their declaration. I realize that this is not a solution to the actual difference in lifecycle, but something like that might be a simple way to work around the issue on occasion. In reality, because there is no event trigger for the label 'bindings', it might be something that is more suited to a labelFunction in this case (it seems that the label display is the same as the 'data' field value), that is, assuming labelFunction emulation currently works correctly on ComboBox.
