Well, that didn't work so well. As you'd expect, this failed pretty
quickly because we had an existing test that exercised the existing
behavior.
Is everyone OK with having this be configured as a UIData property, or
would it be better done using a context-param?
The problem with allow it with a context-param is there is no way to
"reset"
the deltas
or remove rows to synchronize the model with the component state.
Suppose a simple use case, where there is a datatable and an option that
removes one
row. Since we don't have a way to notify the component that the row has been
removed
the state of the deleted row will be applied on the next one.
It is worth to mention that tomahawk HtmlDataTableHack has a method to deal
with this
specific use case called:
public void deleteRowStateForRow(int deletedIndex)
Maybe it is not the best solution but works. In theory, a
publisher-suscriber pattern could
do the job better in this case.
