I just checked in the first crack at org.apache.shale.dialog.base.StateSavingListener which will be available in tonight's nightly build, or immediately via SVN. I suspect there are some bugs that cause the activate and passivate methods not to always be called at the right times yet, so need to get some tests done to verify that ... but the basic idea should be apparent now. Thanks for the cool insights and ideas! It's funny ... I've been whining on the MyFaces lists for a while that I didn't like <t:saveState> because it got the view tier involved in what should be a controller level concern (saving and restoring state). But I didn't have a concrete alternative to point people at. At least for apps that can take advantage of dialogs, now we do :-). And maybe we can leverage this for non dialog users too ... Craig
