There is also a related problem:
how can I have two ajax buttons on one form which submit the form and execute
different functions on the server?
Using the "standard" trick:
SHtml.ajaxForm(bind(...) ++ SHtml.hidden(submitFunction))
won't work, as I want different functions executed for different buttons.
