How to saveState / restoreState for properties that have value bindings

[Randahl Fink Isaksen]

I have been looking through a number of MyFaces components to see how 
state saving was implemented, and it turns out that all the components I 
have checked simply implement the saveState and restoreState methods by 
returning an Object[] containing their private properties.

But I keep asking myself "what about value bound properties?" If I have 
a component which has a property X which may be bound to 
#{someBean.someProperty} does that not mean that I need to restore the 
value of the value binding?

I would expect that restoreState should check if X was bound with a 
value binding and then restore the value of the value binding instead. 
Could anyone please elaborate? Thanks.
