> In the attempts to setup integrated testing one particular piece of wicket
> code isn't quite extendible enough for our needs, which is the generation of
> markup ids by the wicket session class. The ability to extend this
> functionality is not limited to the particular use case, I'd like to propose
> a small change.
> The issue is the following; when a Component has no explicit markup-id set,
> the markup id is generated by the Session which has an internal counter and
> uses an increment of this to generate a mark-id. The flaw IMHO is that a
> Component requests the Session to generate an id, without passing it any
> context. Especially the most logical context, i.e. "please session, generate
> a markup id for _ME_" is missing. Therefore I'd propose that the
> Session.getMarkupId() is passes the Component object for which the markup id
> is to be generated.
> By default, the operation should remain as is and the Session object falls
> back to the default getMarkupId() without parameters, which is already
> overrideable. But now you can override the getMarkupId() and generate more
> useful markup ids.
> In our case, we are able to generate markup ids which contain part of the
> hierarchy and in this manner generate stable Ids, namely those which do not
> change after several requests. This particular usage may just work for our
> case (one page application, no back-button support, etc), but the fundamental
> overrideable method to generate more useful IDs is more widely applicable,
> hence this change request.
