Hi Lincoln,

Funny - I helped implementing something like this in cs-JSF. However, I believe that it is not necessary with the upcoming EL spec release, as you can directly pass in attributes into the value-change-listener method.

Same with f:setPropertyActionListener - I regard it as deprecated or unnecessary if you allow attribute-passing to the action-method.

regards,

Martin

I've added a minor feature suggestion for creating an <f:setPropertyValueChangeListener> tag.

I've worked around it so far by binding an <f:param> to the backing bean instead, but ... I'm not sure that's spec'd behavior or whether it's just a pleasant side-effect... either way, I figure we need something like this: http://wiki.jcp.org/wiki/index.php?page=JSF+Proposed+Features

And yes -- the auto-linking is a slight nuisance.

Yes, this is a fine idea.

This is what I do with Twiki as well.
