When editing an xhtml file if I create a rich:dataTable and use an object outjected via @DataModel then Tools will suggest the possible values for auto-completion.

However, if I create the DataModel inline by wrapping a collection like this:

<rich:dataTable id="banList" var="ban" value="#

{dataModels.getDataModel(summaryBillingAccountNumber.billingAccountNumbers)}

" ">
....
</rich:dataTable>

Then if I access the value "ban" through EL like <h:outputText value="#

{ban.name}

" /> the suggestions after I type "ban." are for the DataModel object not the ban object. It would be nice if the behavior was the same.
