I've been thinking how to make this transition form Joshua's suggestion and Pete's. I can't do what Joshua said addLocation() to action because that will make LocationEdit.xhtml not suitable for the case where we use existing location id from dataTable list. I'm trying to figure out how raiseEvent can use the ID of new Location created on applicationHome in locationHome through page parameter LocationEdit.page.xml.
