Hi Brown, I think it is unfair say that Wicket present an unexpected behavior with the markup, because every functionality are well documented. I saw some situations where some one complain that the "id" tag attribute value was changed. But the Component documentation is clear saying that this attribute is generated. If you have some case where you did read some component documentation and the generated markup was unexpected, you can report the problem, with sure some one will to improve the component documentation or solve the problem.
