Yeah, and that Barbie-doll body and glammed-up inauthentic form-fitting dress drew criticism too...again, not that she's the only Disney girl to have a very idealized figure, but that short-and-snug number shows it off rather more obviously than the puffy princess gowns used in so many of the other movies.
On the other hand, though, I do give them props for getting some really good and woefully underused Native actors like Irene Bedard and Michelle St. John to do the voice work -- according to Kocoum's VA (http://www.kstrom.net/isk/poca/pocind1.html#jimmy), all the Native characters were voiced by Indian actors, and the producers were very accepting when the actors suggested line changes.
