Description

I would like to alter the Link in an EventLink via a Mixin - specifically, remove the LoopBack parameter.

To do this, the "AbstractLink.link" field needs to be set before the link is rendered and a simple change to org.apache.tapestry5.corelib.base.AbstractComponentEventLink would accomplish this:

protected void setupRender()

{ super.link = createLink(context); }

AbstractLink.link would also need to become protected.

I believe the above to be a small yet useful enhancement to the Link Component API.
