I don't want to over user the voting process, but I feel this issue should be sorted.
I apologize for the ones that would be bothered by this, and here is the new feature I propose to vote on :

- Add an interface similar to UserRoleAware, that some x: components would implement.

- Add the matching attribute (no name decided yet, but let's use displayValueOnly).
By default, displayValueOnly is false, and the components behaves as they do today.
When displayValueOnly is true, no input widget is rendered. Only the text corresponding to the component's value is displayed.

Examples :
For inputText, inputTextarea, inputHtml, the text is displayed as if it where rendered by an outputText (with proper escape).
For radio buttons, check boxes, combo boxes & list boxes, only the selected values are displayed.
For inputDate, the date is rendered

As suggested by Manfred, please remember that a negative binding vote on a *feature addition* proposal means: showstopper, that prevents the whole community from getting a (perhaps) valuable contribution. A -1 voter should at least present an alternative solution and should be willing to implement it himself

Here is my +1 for this.

Thanks,

Sylvain.
