I finally had a chance to create a quickstart and play with it. The issue
happens when my FormComponentPanel has its own form. So it appears that the
inner form delays the processing of those inner elements.
Once I removed the inner form so the child FormComponents were added
directly to my FormComponentPanel the getConvertedInput worked as expected.
<wicket:panel>
<form wicket:id="form"> <----------------------------This inner form in
the panel was the culprit!
<div wicket:id="namesList">
<label wicket:id="label"></label>
<input wicket:id="name" />
</div>
</form>
</wicket:panel>
So this leads into another question: Is the a better solution to making it
work if I can't remove the inner form?
