[jsr372-experts] Re: [jsr372-experts mirror] [49-JsClientId] JS function for "give me the clientId"

To All-

I agree that a solution to this issue would require some assumption on how
things are structured. I prefer the technique utilized in PrimeFaces,
whereby you are able to reference components via their widgetVar, rather
than by ID. If effort were to be spent on some resolution to this issue,
I'd rather see a standardized implementation of the widgetVar solution that
is present in the PrimeFaces JavaScript API.

Just my 2 cents.

Best Regards

Josh Juneau
