It's in Howard's hands on whether this should be changed back to
always being a default of literal. After seeing the confusion it has
already caused, it seems literal across the board is worth reverting
back to. But either way is fine with me.

In many cases, the default-binding should not be specified; that way
it will indicate a literal in templates and an OGNL expression in
specifications.
I *really* like this style of development, but it is perfectly
acceptible to always use an ognl: prefix as well. It's kind of like
people who always use this. in front of every instance variable name.

I added this issue in response to a problem a user encountered
converting from 3.0 to 4.0. People seemed surprised that the tag
parameter expected an ognl expression and not a literal. I think the
larger issue is that users are finding default bindings to be a
source
of confusion. Especially since every parameter in 3.0, including
informal ones, were literal unless otherwise indicated. Some
users have
taken to *always* using a binding prefix - so it appears that this
feature is not entirely successful since it's intent was to save
keystrokes. Thoughts?

----------------------------------------------
I am not sure this is a good idea. All the time of time I have
used tag I've used it to select a real object, not just a
String. Just me?
Change default binding of "tag" parameter in Submit component to
"literal"

Key: TAPESTRY-336
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAPESTRY-336
Project: Tapestry
Type: Improvement
Components: Framework
Versions: 4.0
Reporter: Paul Ferraro
Priority: Minor
The default binding of the "tag" parameter in the Submit
component should be changed from "ognl" to "literal" since it is
usually bound to a literal string.
