Just looking at the partial triggers and it looks very cool. I agree, it would be a good thing across the board in all non standard components, a killer feature.
Though, I wonder if the partial trigger concept with just updating other components would be sufficient for all types of actions that someone might want to implement?

Travis,
Check out the "partialTriggers" attribute on the ADF components.
Also the AdfFacesContext.addPartialTarget() method. These'd
be good things to apply to MyFaces as a whole. One of the
more important features of ADF is that we don't require
target components to know anything about AJAX at all, or
to be enclosed in any sort of "AJAX zone" component - so you
can redraw any component. As long as they follow some standard
best practices for using the ResponseWriter, it just works.
