It's not possible to create menu items with the help of <a4j:repeat />
----------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: RF-2560
                 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/RF-2560
             Project: RichFaces
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 3.1.4
         Environment: windows, jboss, ff/ie, jsf ri
            Reporter: Bj?rn Weinbrenner


It seems that its not possible to use <ui:repeat /> or <a4j:repeat /> to create menus. if you iterate to add menuItems to a a menu e.g. contextmenu they won't appear.
That seems to depend on the implementation of org.richfaces.renderkit.html.AbstractMenuRenderer
Only direct children are search for items. Repeat-Components are ignored and their childs aren't found.

public void encodeItems(FacesContext context, UIComponent component) throws IOException {
		List kids = component.getChildren();
		Iterator it = kids.iterator();
		while (it.hasNext()) {
			UIComponent kid = (UIComponent)it.next();
			if (kid instanceof UIMenuGroup || kid instanceof UIMenuItem || kid instanceof UIMenuSeparator) {
				renderChild(context, kid);
			}
		}
	}
