You're right though that people shouldn't *rely* on this. However I'm definitely guilty of having used the rendered property of a <t:inputHidden> or similar to trigger bean initialisation, and assumed it occurs before EL expressions on other tags are invoked, ie that the rendering does a normal depth-first traversal. I might even have assumed that it happens only once during the render phase..
Bad Simon! No supper for you tonight!
