Unhelpful exception messages when a null value is bound to a required parameter.

                 Key: TAPESTRY-2476
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAPESTRY-2476
             Project: Tapestry
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core Components
    Affects Versions: 5.0.11
         Environment: Windows XP Service Pack 2, FireFox 2.0.0.14, Eclipse 
3.3.2, Maven 2.0.9, Run-Jetty-Run, Java 1.6.0_3
            Reporter: Daniel
            Priority: Minor


Example exception:
   Render queue error in SetupRender[MainPage:tilesetsearch.palette]:
   org.apache.tapestry.ioc.internal.util.TapestryException

Example tml line:
   <t:palette t:model="keywordModel" t:selected="selectedKeywordIds" 
t:encoder="longEncoder" t:size="5"/>

Example stack trace: java.lang.NullPointerException
  * org.apache.tapestry.corelib.components...
          Palette.setupRender(Palette.java:379)
  *      Palette.setupRender(Palette.java)
  * org.apache.tapestry.internal.structure...
          ComponentPageElementImpl$13$1.run(ComponentPageElementImpl.java:478)
  *      ComponentPageElementImpl.invoke(ComponentPageElementImpl.java:880)
  *      ComponentPageElementImpl.access$100(ComponentPageElementImpl.java:54)
  *      ComponentPageElementImpl$13.render(ComponentPageElementImpl.java:482)
  * org.apache.tapestry.internal.services...
          RenderQueueImpl.run(RenderQueueImpl.java:63)
  *      PageRenderQueueImpl.render(PageRenderQueueImpl.java:84)

This constitutes one example where the t:selected parameter was null. Later I 
got the same exception message with a different stack trace when the same 
parameter was null, but for a different reason.

Perhaps required parameters should not only be bound, but also null checked.
