[Trinidad] tr:table "binding" attribute problem

[Steve Horne]

I am using Facelets and Trinidad 1.0.4.

I have a <tr:table> that has a "detailStamp" facet which contains another
table.  It is this inner table with which I am having problems.  Here is the
outer table:

                <tr:table first="0" rows="10" var="wrapper" value="#{
backer.list}" rowBandingInterval="1" emptyText="#{labels['
Global.search.notFound']}">
                    <f:facet name="detailStamp">
                        <pmb:businessEntityList backer="#{
wrapper.entityBacker}" />
                    </f:facet>
                    <tr:column>
                        <f:facet name="header">Business Category
Name</f:facet>#{wrapper.businessCategory.name}</tr:column>
                    <tr:column>
                        <f:facet name="header">Business Category
Description</f:facet>#{wrapper.businessCategory.desc}</tr:column>
                </tr:table>


The contents of the detailStamp are a custom facelet that includes this
table:

<tr:table first="0" rows="10" var="sub" value="#{backer.list}"
rowSelection="multiple" rowBandingInterval="1" emptyText="#{labels['
Global.search.notFound']}">
    <f:facet name="footer">
        <pmb:brokeredActions />
    </f:facet>
    <f:facet name="selection">
        <tr:selectManyCheckbox />
    </f:facet>
    <tr:column>
        <f:facet name="header">#{labels['BusinessEntity.name']}</f:facet>#{
sub.name}</tr:column>
    <tr:column>
        <f:facet name="header">#{labels['BusinessEntity.desc']}</f:facet>#{
sub.desc}</tr:column>
</tr:table>

As you can see, the innermost facelet is passed a parameter "backer".  This
all works perfectly UNLESS I put a binding attribute on the innermost table:

<tr:table binding="#{backer.listTable}" ...

This causes an exception:

javax.faces.el.PropertyNotFoundException:
/components/lob/businessEntity/list.xhtml @24,223 binding="#{
backer.listTable}": Target Unreachable, identifier 'backer' resolved to null
    at com.sun.facelets.el.LegacyValueBinding.setValue(
LegacyValueBinding.java:72)
    at org.apache.myfaces.application.ApplicationImpl.createComponent(
ApplicationImpl.java:447)
    at com.sun.facelets.tag.jsf.ComponentHandler.createComponent(
ComponentHandler.java:237)
    at com.sun.facelets.tag.jsf.ComponentHandler.apply(ComponentHandler.java
:139)
    at com.sun.facelets.tag.UserTagHandler.apply(UserTagHandler.java:122)

I think this has something to do with the time at which the evaluation
happens for the binding attribute.  By removing the binding, the innermost
table works perfectly, meaning the identifier "backer" does NOT resolve to
null.

Any help or insight into this problem would be appreciated.
