I submitted a patch for a quick fix, but there are some conceptual problems with non-ajax components that need to be thought through, so I think Massimo may have postponed applying the patch until we figure that out. For example, the fix for this particular issue would involve copying response.generic_patterns to other_response.generic_patterns (which is the response object used by the component). But what if the parent page action made changes to response.generic_patterns -- should those changes propogate to the component (which is what would happen with the simple fix), or should the component not see those changes (that's a lot harder to work out without re-running the models)? Note, this issue is not limited to generic_patterns. Also, I think Massimo has just been very busy the past couple weeks, so there haven't been a lot of commits in general. Anthony
