Having said that, there might be some complexities with existing code. For example, looking at PrimeFaces, in org.primefaces.component.inputtext.InputTextRenderer I noticed that no component is passed to startElement. With Mojarra, the com.sun.faces.renderkit.html_basic.MenuRenderer calls startElement several times with the same component (once for "select" and again for "option" and "optiongroup"). Not much can be done if the component is not passed, but the menu case is particularly interesting because I would expect passthough attributes and overrides to apply to "select" but not "option" or "optiongroup".

Should we spec this behavior and add a component for SelectItemGroup?
