Yes, but if you think the Tapestry 5 provided component TextField, you have exactly the same situation. The component does _not_ rely on any code on the page, only requirement is that it is enclosed in a form.
I want that same thing, but I just need to do a redirect after submit if user presses a button in the component. And that, in my opinion, is too hard on T5 now. I can do it with action link, but then the submit part is missing and user is very likely to lose data. And the component cannot contain the form, as it is part of larger structure that must be inside the same form. Also, I cannot know which page will contain the component. (It can be configured in database.) - Ville Ps. I resolved this by extending the submit context component (http://wiki.apache.org/tapestry/Tapestry5SubmitContextComponent) that I earlier modified to work with 5.0.12. Now developer can return onSelected any of the navigational return values listed here: http://tapestry.apache.org/tapestry5/guide/pagenav.html.
