> Currently, PageRenderLinkSource provides an "addParameter(String, String)" object.  This is nice for allowing the fullest control over what ultimately is placed into the URL, but it is not uncommon to have something along the lines of:
> ValueEncoderSource encoderSource;
> ...
> link.addParameter("myparam", encoderSource.getValueEncoder(MyClass.class).toClient(myvalue));
> It would be nice for PageRenderLinkSource to have an "addParameter(String, Object)" method in addition to the addParameter(String, String) method.  Users needing absolute control of the way parameters appear would retain that control, and the rest of us can write less code.
