hi, the HibernateEntityValueEncoder creates ValueEncoder for every contributed Entity class.... that's nice... but if i submit a page with a select component that used a list of entities to generate the selection model i will receive an exception if no option was selected! this is because the ValueEncoder will try to coerce the empty field to the type of the id field!! (i use blankOption=ALWAYS)
the problem now is, that if i contribute my own ValueEncoder i get an IOC warning that there is already one registered for my entity class. I need either a way to disable the HibernateEntiyValueEncoder or a way to override the automatically generated ValueEncoders with a custom one. i think the HibernateEntityValueEncoder should only then attempt to reload the entity if the value is non-empty; if empty or null it should return null any suggestions? JIRA? g, krsi
