Trinidad skin selection failing on initial visit for each session

[Ro...@equifax.com]

This is a resend of a message from Christian Hall.  His email was rejected 
due to too high of a spam score.  I am retrying.

We are using a skin whose family property in the config file is set to 
resolve via an expression using a session scoped bean (e.g. 
#{sessionScope.userContext.skinFamily}).

Upon the first visit to the page, the default minimal skin is used and on 
the second visit it uses our skin. As best I can tell from debugging, it 
just doesn't run our code during the stylesheet component's encoding 
(we're actually using trh:head) but waits until the body tag writes a 
debug comment to the page. The comment says something to the effect of 
"skin: minimal (custom)" where custom is our custom skin family...so at 
that point, it runs our code, sees our custom family and the next page 
works...but that first rendering for each session gets the minimal skin.

Is this a known issue? Anyone seen this?

Thanks,

This is a repost due to email difficulties at work I posted the answer a few
days back. Drop the sessionScope and it works.

why using sessionScope.blah at all ?
I'd suggest to use only blah.foo, when your bean is correctly configured
