Hi Mathias, never heard of layout="spread" before, it's illegal value according to the tld, but i looked into the source and the examples and at least i hopefully have understand what it mean and how it works,
And my conclusion is there is a bug in this component. The submitted value is never rendered back if layout=spread. Could you, or someone else, create a small example to confirm this? Just a page with selectOneRadio with layout=spread, some correspondending radio tags and a command with immediate=true (to prevent validation ) and no action (is that possible?) to force rerender the same view. If i am correct the submitted value will get lost. If someone confims this and file a jira issue i can provide a patch to fix this.
