Hi,
there are such cases but not many of them: in myfaces code after quick
search I guess about 10 such cases. The "main" is in
UIComponentBase.encodeChildren and in RendererUtils.renderChild (well,
there was, but I removed it incorrectly as part of MYFACES-3126)
This affects all attributes of component, not only rendered. If renderer
encodes children, then must set up context if reads something from
child. Consider:
<a:tabbedPane>
<a:navigationItem style="#{component.something eq 'b'}" />
if tabbedPaneRenderer iterates over children directly and reads 'style'
property, then it must guarantee that 'component' resolves to
navigationItem otherwise it is incosistent with situation, where
navigationItem encodes itself.
This will affects complex structures like dataTable and panelGrid, I
think.

Kočičák
