The simplest "fix" is switching tr:form to h:form. That'll force
a naming container into your page, changing "name"
to "formsId:name". Or, wrap the page in an f:subview to
again force clientId prefixing. (I'm assuming Seam only
cares about the ID, not the clientId).
Yes, it's a big annoyance. It comes from the fact that
form.foo gives you the "foo" element in a form. And form.name
is supposed to give you the name of the form, but if you have
an element named "name", it blocks that.
