This sounds ugly. You are sure that this is the behaviour in both
MyFaces and Mojarra. Here my 2cents:

- Partial state saving should not make any difference at all (also in
partial state saving, the template should be reapplied before
rendering, see my other mail)
- PostAddToViewEvent should be called always after a component has
been added to the view fully, and all its state has been restored

best regards,

Martin
