Hi,

The page can become stateful during rendering, as you have noticed.
There is a code in WebPageRenderer that re-renders the page if it
change state during the first rendering because otherwise some
previously rendered links may became broken.

The real problem here is that #isPageStateless() does caching (by
using Page#stateless variable) and once set it doesn't bother asking
the components second time.

I see no reason to add restrictions related to the page's lifecycle.
This wont help.
The only solution that I see is to remove the caching and make this
call more expensive. But even in this case your logic wont work.
It will work only if your label is at the very bottom of the page.
