Thanks but it does not fit the needs
1) the default value should be configurable per page. It's not the only
hidden field. Some have a searchScope that depend on which page the form
sit in. It can't be initialized by 'managed property'
Cmon, there should be something as simple as defaut="..." that exist in
JSF. I can't believe a form couldn't have default values in the JSP...
