-------------------------------------

I noticed a ObjectConverter was added into the Seam faces repository. But the apidoc said it can only be applied in a long run Conversation scoped, how to process when I use request, view, transient conversation scope. 

why not put the converted objects in the viewMap of the view root? They can be created when view root was created and be destroyed when the view root was destroyed.

>   Bar bar;
>   // Getters and setters
>   List<Bar> bars;
>   // Getters and setters

> <h:selectOneMenu value="#{foo.bar}" >

> I want to be able to have my setter/getter reference an object and not write the boilerplate for converting to/from a string.
> I also want to reference a managed entity, and have that managed entity set back into the setter so I can see the changes updated in the database with no boilerplate, and avoid LIEs.
