SWFLoader/Image complete event problem (bug?)

Question

I have an SWFLoader in my application whose content is
dynamically bound to a datagrid for loading different images.
Depending on the new image size I want to make some adjustments,
etc. to the SWFLoader itself... that's not important for now.
The problem is that if I take the width of the SWFLoader
instance on the "complete" event, it gives the value for the
PREVIOUS image setting so my math function is useless.
Try this to see what I mean:
[Bindable]
public var imageSource:String;
private function temp():void {
mx.controls.Alert.show("imgLoader.width: "+imgLoader.width);
<mx:Button click="imageSource='someImageURL'" />
<mx:SWFLoader id="imgLoader" autoLoad="true"
source="{imageSource}" complete="temp()" />
if you implement the above code, and assuming that
imageSource is a null string upon initialization, you will get a
value of "0" for the imgLoader instance's width when you load a new
image.
To get around this in Flex 1.5 I could use doLater(this,
"temp") but doLater appears to have been removed in Flex 2.0.
My current work around is to modify the above code as
follows:
private function temp():void {
this.addEventListener("enterFrame", blorch);
private function blorch(b:Event):void {
mx.controls.Alert.show("imgLoader.width: "+imgLoader.width);
this.removeEventListener("enterFrame", blorch);
feels like a hack to me... is there no way to get this to
work without using the above functions? Sort of seems pointless to
have removed "doLater" just to make me write a function that
essentially does the same thing in Flex 2.0. I tried using the
"resize" event in place of "complete" and that works... if the
image loaded is a different size than the previous one. If the
image is the same size (as is often the case in my application)
then it doesn't work.
Any suggestions Adobe/Macromedia, fellow developers?

Flex harUI -
two solutions to this then are:
1) use the callLater() function or
2) extend the SWFLoader class...
I don't want to increase my component files so I will stick
with the callLater() setup.

I tried init. It has the same result as complete. If I insert
code like this: init="mx.controls.Alert.show(imgLoader.width)" I
get the width for the *previous* setting (same as complete) and not
the new setting.
