I was going to do that in the init method of the viewcontroller
interface for the bean init method unless you have another better
place to do it?
I'm just going to do a Hibernate query which should return a list.

Yep ... that should all work, although you could also bind your view
components directly to #{productsManagedBean} if you wanted to, and avoid
the need for the extra level of indirection.
I also presume you have some initialization mechanism that populates the
actual list elements for "productsManagedBean" someplace?
