Ok, in my case, the problem was solved by casting (or top level function
conversion, or whatever it really is). In the repeater, this produced
the warnings:
myProperty'[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
This should have been expected, since currentItem is type Object, and we
know better than to bind to that. The fact that the compiler recognized
and reported the correct contained class as 'XML' led me astray. This
corrects the warnings:
myProperty'{XML(myRepeater.currentItem)[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
And a related note, the XML class does definitely dispatch the events to
support binding. My search of the documents however did not turn up any
definitive statement to that effect. In fact, there are contradictory
statements. If I have time I will continue to investigate the docs.
I have posted my XMLBinding proof app on cflex if anyone cares.

I don't think that is correct. The XML class does dispatch the events
necessary for binding. I'll look for the doc reference in a bit.

It may be working so far because the objects you set your XML as a
dataProvider are wrapping it as an XMLListCollection or similar, which
will provide notification mechanisms. The XML class as-is can't
participate in binding as it doesn't dispatch events (which is required
for binding).

That fix seems to apply to objects in a collection or array.
How do I apply it to xml attributes?
And again, is it a valid warning? Or can it be ignored. The bindings
seem to work (so far)

All,
I was troubleshooting this binding warning the other day myself and ran
across this blog - that at least in my case - addressed the issue,
complete with a detailed explanation and code examples. The key is
using an ObjectProxy.
