how will you solve this with the "executeOnComponent" method? > > Example 2: try to use the new AJAX-form components (which rely on the > usage of find-component heavily) in a dataTable. Can't we do a setRowIndex() in the datatables findComponent() method? Of cause this wouldn't help on multiple findComponent() calls in different rows, but on e.g. inputsuggestajax (i don't know the others) it should work. Can you explain how the suggested executeOnComponent method should work?
