Description

With the introduction of the @GenerateAccessor annotation, tapestry's core components were stripped of their "getters" and "setters". But Grid's currentPage property should be accessible via java code, and not 100% internal to the component. There are many cases where a container may want or need to change the current page, outside of the standard "pager" links. Without the accessors, this is non-trivial (ie requires reflection).
