I've been getting null pointer exceptions with Seam 2.0.0.GA with a .page.xml 
file / application that used to work fine in 1.2.1.GA.   The error happens when 
processing the restful parameters:

  | 2008-01-23 14:44:57,532 [http-0.0.0.0-8080-1] ERROR SeamPhaseListener  - 
uncaught exception
  | java.lang.NullPointerException
  |     at 
org.jboss.seam.navigation.Param.validateConvertedValue(Param.java:246)
  |     at 
org.jboss.seam.navigation.Pages.convertAndValidateStringValuesInPageContext(Pages.java:743)
  |     at org.jboss.seam.navigation.Pages.postRestore(Pages.java:393)
  | 

This is the code in Param.java that fails:

  |       if (valueExpression!=null)
  |       {
  |          //TODO: note that this code is duplicated from ModelValidator!!
  |          ELContext elContext = facesContext.getELContext();
  |          InvalidValue[] invalidValues;
  |          try
  |          {
  |             invalidValues = Validators.instance().validate( 
valueExpression.toUnifiedValueExpression(), elContext, value );
  |          }
  |          catch (ELException ele)
  |          {
  |             Throwable cause = ele.getCause();
  |             if (cause==null) cause = ele;
  |             throw new ValidatorException( createMessage(cause), cause );
  |          }
  |          
  |          if ( invalidValues.length>0 ) // <== Boom! NPE
  |          {
  |             throw new ValidatorException( createMessage(invalidValues) );
  |          }
  |       }
  | 

I took a look at the code and saw that there is an array of 'invalid values' 
which is expected to be of zero length if there are no errors but in this case 
it's null.  The strange thing is that there are other places in the application 
where restful parameters work just fine.   The only thing I can think of is 
that in this case, the restful parameter is being used inside a facelets 
template (the parameter turns the top nav bar off).

Anyone see this before?
I suppose I could fix it by overriding the definition of Validators with my 
own, or perhaps patching Param.
