Using this > oxf.xforms.server.events.plain-value-change property

Hi,
According to the Orbeon Wiki,

XForms 1.1 specifies that upon xforms-value-changed, all MIP events must
be dispatched as well. This behavior is usually not desired and can have
a negative performance impact. Setting the following property to true
removes that behavior:

<property as="xs:boolean"
 name="oxf.xforms.server.events.plain-value-change" value="true"/>

In this case, xforms-value-changed does not automatically cause MIP
events to be sent. They will be sent only if needed, that is if they
have changed.



Is this property still there?

I am using an Orbeon nightly download from Dec 19th 2009.

In the past, we notice that xforms-value-changed will not be trigger
when we set a field value to the same value.
Eg: An input field has an existing value of "English", we do a setvalue
to update it to "English".
The input field value is not changed, so xforms-value-changed did not
get triggered.

Our forms are design with this behavior in mind, but the recent Orbeon
nightly download do not follow the same behavior pattern.

Thanks.
