Matthias,
Well, I understood what was going on.
The event source correctly return the UIComponent that
generated the event, the problem is that the
BakingBean Components are not updated during the execution of the
ValueChangeListener.processValueChange() method.
If I look the at the BakingBean after the UpdateModel phase, the
getSource() is correctly containing a reference to the updated
UIComponent.
Thanks a lot, and I will use myFaces valueChangeNotifier for the rest
of my life.
