Greg Brown commented on PIVOT-520:
----------------------------------

Re-posting from dev list. After thinking this through a bit, I am starting to 
think that Dirk's idea to use an annotation here might make sense. I believe he 
suggested something along the lines of:

@IDProperty(name="foo")

If this attribute is specified on a class, WTKXSerializer would propagate the 
ID value to the given property. This would avoid the name duplication and would 
be a fairly trivial change. I'm still not convinced that it is absolutely 
necessary, but it is nice to have and obviously has some use cases. Also, I 
believe Spring offers a similar feature via the BeanNameAware interface, so it 
would be nice to have a comparable feature.

> Add a name property to Component
> a) A getter/setter
> b) A method to Container for Component getNamedComponent(String componentName)
> The name should default to an the wtkx:id if one is specified for that 
> component or if the name is not specified, null. If a name is specified and 
> no wtkx:id is specified , it should become the wtkx:id of that component. The 
> name must be a valid java identifier, otherwise an serialization exception 
> should be thrown. The name used in the component should be left and right 
> whitespace trimmed.
