Hi, I found out that tr:iterator expects it's children List to remain always the same, bc StampStates are indexed by position in children collection. However this is not always true, during postback request UIInstruction components generated by facelets are dropped from children collection (I think this might be because they are not saved in the viewstate, maybe webflow and it's serialization mechanism has something to do with this).
Is this bug of Trinidad or is problem somewhere else? Maybe it would be better if StampStates were indexed by component Id rather then by position? Any input much appreciated.
