Get Access to RowList thumbnail item?

Is there a way to get a reference to an item of a rowList. The reference to the item, NOT the contentNode of the item?

I would like to directly tell an item to do something. Currently the only workaround I have found to tell an item to do something is get a reference to the item's contentNode and make a change to the contentNode, which triggers the item's handler that is listening to any change to its content field.

I would rather NOT tell a rowList item to do something indirectly. I would rather tell it to do something DIRECTLY.

Any ideas?

To my knowledge, the answer is "no"; there's no way to get a direct reference to the items contained by a rowList.  As you mentioned, by updating the content the items can triggered to do things.
