Is it? I couldn't find a description of this particular issue. I was going
through the Tutorial, Developer's Guide, and Component Reference but didn't
see it? Did you have to drop down to Javadocs? I even perused those for a
few of the classes (DirectService, Engine, etc.).

Doh! I just started looking through the Javadocs in detail. Of course, I has
passed over everything in the net.sf.tapestry.binding package in my search
for the resolution to this problem, not knowing I had a problem with my
binding type. Christian is right; all the binding types are described right
there... ;-)

Anyway, in general, Christian's comment is correct. Tapestry is very well
documented, particularly compared to other open source projects.
Documentation separates the men from the boys, so to speak.

Given that somebody is revising the tutorial right now, as a newbie I would
vote that the issue of binding types receive some good treatment. The
problem here is that the error (stale session) was not obviously related to
the cause (using a static-binding for the stateful parameter; BTW, does it
make sense for the stateful parameter to ever use a static-binding??). This
can be amazing frustrating to debug when you don't understand things well.
Alternatively, if there's way for an "invalid binding type" error or
something to be throw. That would have led me to the solution faster.

Thanks for all the help, everybody.
