Ah, very interesting. Certainly seems like a cleaner alternative for
components that don't want to cause any side effects.

You don't have to wait for a future version to get some relief. In JSF
1.2,
the UIComponent.invokeOnComponent() method was added, specifically to make
AJAX integration easier, especially when you want to operate on part of the
component tree instead of all of it. A lot of the current pain is due to
the fact that this wasn't there in 1.0/1.1.
I just now read a bunch of articles/slides on this, mostly by Jacob
Hookom and Ed Burns. That does indeed sound neat - especially for
components like dataTable.
Even though we still have some pain using this stuff today, people are
coming up with clever solutions. Seems JSF is evolving in terms of
supporting stuff like AJAX, and hopefully the future promises even more
innovations.
Thanks for pointing these out to me guys.
