I don't have a backing bean and I don't want to have one as it doesn't make sense for such an "add new" text box. The action method is the proper place, thanks a lot.

In the actionListener or action of the submit, clear the submitted value and local value of the component. if you want the value to be cleared when a "normal" (non-immediate) action is run, just clear the value from the backing bean that the text box is bound to.
