Having a List in a Form messes up layout

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hello!

I found the following issue when testing my program on Android phone (HTC 
myTouch 4G) and Simulator.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Create a simple form with a List control in it (use attached example).
2. Click on the first item in the list (index 0) and the selected index will 
change to 1.
3. Click on the second control in the list (index 1) and the selected index 
will change to 2.

What is the expected output? 
 - Selected index should change to whatever item is being selected via click.

What do you see instead?
 - Selected index is 1 greater then the one actually selected.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
 - Latest version of CN1 on Android OS 2.2 and 2.3

I've created a different example with a Label, List, and Button in a form.  The 
problem persists, everything seems to be shifted.  

When testing on a real device I've found that rotating the screen to force a 
layout change will fix the issue.

The problem seems to be related to incorrectly initialized absolute Y.  Any 
workaround until the fix is available will be greatly appreciated.

The workaround is to make the Form scrollable false but it seems to me that the 
first version should still work regardless.
Chen can you look at this?

I tracked the problem down to the initComponentImpl() method in the List class. 
 It is invoked before the container is layed out while internally it calls to 
List.selectElement() which calls List.scrollRectToVisible() which calls up to 
Component.scrollRectToVisible() which, since component bounds are still zero at 
this point sets scroll Y and everything goes downhill from there.
