Passing the clientId from one embedded component to another?

[Jochen Frey]

Hi!

I am trying to pass the clientId of one component that is contained within a 
page (or component) into another component like so:

            <t:zone t:id="aZone">
                abc
            </t:zone>

            <t:widget t:zone="aZone.clientid"/>

In order to do this, the corresponding java class needs to have something like 
this:

    @InjectComponent
    @Property
    private Zone aZone;


Question:  Is there a way to achieve the same effect (pass the clientId of one 
component into another) without having to declare a property in the 
corresponding Java class?


I know about the "prop:componentResources.id" trick, but that only works once 
per (containing) component.
I have tried to do something along the lines of "component:aZone.clientid", but 
that doesn't seem to work.

I'm sure it's possible, but I can't seem to find it ... .

Thanks!
Jochen
