Sorry, but I've read the solution below 10 times now and it hurts my head every
time! :-) I don't see how it gets around the problem that when E is
AJAX-submitted, the server-side elements can find ways to prod L to refresh but
they cannot tell L the current value of F. The server-side doesn't know the
current value of F, unless we make the server-side stateful (no thank you), or
we somehow include the value of F in every request.
What I'm aiming for is a solution which works declaratively. You know, where
you don't see the plumbing. Just like @ActivationRequestParameter, but at the
component level.
