I have found with the latest Tap5.3 beta that the html generated from a simple
textfield differs significantly if you are using tapestry-core or
tapestry-hibernate.
In my .tml file I have the following simple input:
<t:label for="username">Username: </t:label>
<t:textfield t:id="username" value="username" class="username" />
When this is run with tapestry-core I get the following html:
<label for="username">Username: </label>
<input class="username" value="f...@bar.com" id="username" name="username"
type="text">
When I run the same template with tapestry-hibernate I get the following html:
<label>Username: </label>
<input class="username" value="f...@bar.com" type="text">
Notice the tapestry-hibernate version is missing the id attribute which is
causing my javascript to fail (and I think when the form is submitted, tap
can't seem to decode the values).
I've put together a small sample app that you can clone from github that
demonstrates the problem:

Simply change the tapestry dependency from tapestry-core to tapestry-hibernate
and restart jetty with "mvn clean jetty:run" to see the problem.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
