yep, however the filosophy of binding (and using jxpath) has always been to hide the XML/Bean difference and thus support both

but adding the XML/Bean symmetrical support is not really adding to complexity, is it?

sure, it should just reuse the existing InsertBeanBinding
ok if I give it a shot?
(of course this will change the syntax of the simple-repeater in the binding)

This sounds like simple-repeater should get some more features from his more complex brother, no?
Or make the (complex)Repeater List savvy ......
hm, not sure,
first off: it's rather ordered-collection-savvy (ie should work with arrays as well, and not to forget the NodeLists from XML files)
but what other strategy could we want to use in that case then just throw away all items and copy the sequence from the repeater (ie what the SimpleRepeaterBinding is doing?)
suggestion:
introduce on-bind wrapping of the children, so we can introduce a
on-create-row that behaves just like the on-insert-row and allows to specify the classname of a jxpath-factory?
wdyt?
