+1 for partialSubmit instead of pps. 

Actually I do not understand why the 2.0 spec insists on
submitting the complete form, not only the elements listed
in execute, but backwards compatibility would probably 
require leaving it as default.

I don't completely understand what you are saying with
"This attribtue is specific to any Ajax request in a given form",
Can you please elaborate on this?

Lincoln, can be please give some details on the
"implications for validation and other view processing"
you see with this attribute?

Best regards,
Ganesh
