[TYPO3-mvc] Edit of @lazy property

[Xavier Perseguers]

Hey Franz,

>> <f:form.select id="billingContact" property="billingContact"
>> value="{company.billingContact}" options="{company.persons}"
>> optionLabelField="name" />
>>
>> When I show the form, I have first person in the list selected (wrong!)
>>
>> When I remove the @lazy attribute on billingContact in Company model, I
>> get the valid person selected.

You're right! Removing the "value" attribute then works when @lazy is used.

Funny, I had the problem with undefined __toString() method which just 
got committed.

Thanks
