rich:pickList does not set List<E> property of stateful with empty ArrayList<E>
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBSEAM-3518
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-3518
             Project: Seam
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.1.0.CR1, 2.1.0.BETA1
         Environment: 4.2.3GA seam 2.1cr1 and present in beta1 as well
            Reporter: Emil Iakoupov


Hello,
i have the following in the xhtml page:

<s:decorate id="matchSkillsDecorate" template="display.xhtml">
  <ui:define name="label">Skills:</ui:define>
  <rich:pickList id="pickedSkills"
    value="#{userRegistration.pickedSkills}" style="width: auto;">
    <s:selectItems id="skills" value="#{skills}" var="_skill" label="#{_skill.skillDescription}"/>
    <s:convertEntity/>
  </rich:pickList>
</s:decorate>

here is the userRegistration bean:

@Stateful
@Name("userRegistration")
public class UserRegistrationAction implements UserRegistration {
...
@DataModel(value="skills", scope=ScopeType.PAGE)
private List<Skill> skills;

private List<Skill> pickedSkills; // has getters and setters here and in interface.
...
the problem is that private List<Skill> pickedSkills gets set with an empty ArrayList<E>, on page submit, although everything in the pickList is displayed correctly. I posted to seam forum and rich forum. No answer.
