Good suggestion!! I'd tried this before and not been able to render regular components along side Trinidad, possibly this was related to my issue that I had with mixing Trinidad, Ajax4Jsf and Seam: http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=101579 ...anyway, my upgrade to MyFaces 1.1.5 has also resolved this rendering problem, so moving to <h:inputText> now works a treat.
