Re: [jsr-314-open] eval of inline scripts
Agreed. This threw me off too. Its possible to work around, but counter intuitive.

Subject: [jsr-314-open] eval of inline scripts
I've filed spec bug 616, eval of inline scripts.
Currently, the specification doesn't require that <script> tags get
evaluated during update or insert operations on the client, nor does it
specify how they be evaluated if they are included.
Right now, the RI doesn't eval these included scripts - but we plan to
do so, as does MyFaces. Given that this behavior was the default for
many "legacy" JSF Ajax solutions, I think that's the general user
expectation as well.
Although there is a eval operation in the XML schema, this is
unfortunately insufficient - renderers for custom components, for
instance, will already be wrapped in an update operation, and cannot
easily do a separate eval operation in the RI.
Just wanted to give warning to anyone who may be relying on us *not*
doing script eval that's it's going in for FCS, as well as making the
case for it's inclusion in the next rev of the spec.
