Sounds good.  Another way of specifying the way the popup button is to
be displayed would be something like:

popupLauncher="image|button"

I was looking at the standard JSF tags to see if there is a precedence
for which way to specify this (i.e., either as enumerated values or as a
boolean on one of the enumerations).  It appears that both ways of
specifying this type of thing are used.  For example,
<h:selectManyCheckbox> and <h:selectOneRadio> have a layout parameter:

layout="lineDirection|pageDirection"

and <f:convertDateTime> has a type parameter:

type="time|date|both"

and dateStyle:

dateStyle="default|short|medium|long|full"

Other paramters, however, use the true/false approach.  So I guess you
have your choice!

Don't worry, I will do it myself. The attribute name is going to be
'popupButtonAsImage'. Somebody disagrees or has a better name?

P.S. I sent my last answer to this thread to Warren only by mistake.
Here it is: ;-)
