For the first time, I'm in need for a datatable with dynamic columns via the p:columns element and have this datatable in a ui:repeat (c:forEach is no option since it results in to many other issues). During implementation, I encountered the issue that the number of columns for each subsequent datatable is identical to the number of columns for the first datatable that was renderd in the repeat. This issue that has been reported multiple times

Luckily I do not have to create 'full but minimal' testcase myself, since there is already a post on stackoverflow that contains one : http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2132 ... umber-of-c
The posts in the issuelist contain different (sort of) fixes which I did not try to apply yet to the PF5 source. Will try that later tonight I hope. Although the first solution seems very wrong from a performance point of view... The "don't-do-any-real-work-in-getters-(unless-it-is-wrapped-in-a-null-check-and-done-only-once)" is violated...
Possibly releated things regarding updating inputs in datatables are:

(Kito Mann posted the last one, so I 'hope' this makes it more urgent to get fixed
)For the record, the system used was
- Wildfly 8.0
- JSF 2.2.2
- JDK 1.7
- Primefaces 5.0 Full release
