OK, still not understanding exactly what you're doing. But let me make
a guess.
You're updating a section of your page with an ajax call, yes?
That section of page is larger than the single component which you've
written, right? Maybe, say, @form?
Just a guess. That's one thing that would explain what you're seeing.
There are others, but without details, it's hard to say.
If so, why not just update only that component?
But this is only guessing - you haven't really said much about what
you're doing.

From reading the spec and the API doc I'm suspecting PartialViewContext.processPartial just because it's his job to update the components on his list. It could also be UIComponentBase, it doesn't say. UIInput (the class I'm extending) doesn't have any encode methods.

But I can print the response on the client side with an onevent handler, and there it is, an update element with an empty CDATA, an eval with my output, and another update with an empty CDATA.
