Bart, The CoreSelectBooleanCheckbox has a lot more functionality than the UIXSelectBoolean. All of the attributes available in a tr:selectBooleanTag are available programmatically via methods in CoreSelectBooleanCheckbox. I've been using the checkbox, radio button, selectOneChoice, and a lot of the other controls extensively and I've found that they all work as expected so I was pretty sure there was some small mistake in your usage that was causing the problem.
