How to use request scoped manage beans in a 1.0.4 dialog?

[Paul Spencer]

I need to use an existing JSF page in a dialog.  How to I tell the 1.0.4 
Dialog manager which request scoped beans to maintain through out the 
dialog?

Is their a way to do this in the dialog configuration?
I was hoping for something like:
  <dialog ...>
    <beans>
      <bean name="renamedBean" value="#{requestScopeBean1}"/>
      <bean name="requestScopeBean2"/>
    </beans>
  </dialog>
All of the the views would have access to #{renamedBean} and 
#{requestScopeBean2}
