Hi Ed,
Hopefully this is the final review. I have attached the changebundle to the issue along with the new facelets for the devtest. Scrumtoys and all the tests pass.
I am using the FacesContext attrs to store the value of the boolean mentioned below. It is no longer a static var.

Thanks
Sheetal

I agree with the basic idea in the solution but not so much with adding the list of components to look at to the FacesContext attrs. I think there might be a better way to achieving this right in the ComponentSupport class. I may not have all my facts right. That's where I'm looking to you for guidance.

I have noticed that, when the parent is one of the above, the parent's ancestry is null somewhere along the line. Is this a possibility for any other kind of component as well?
