How is @DataModel supposed to work?

This doesn't work, items is null when the "select"-action is called. Shouldn't the value be injected when the action is called?

@Scope(EVENT)
public class FindItems extends BaseAction {

 @DataModel(scope = PAGE)
 private List<Item> items;
}

This is a bit light on surrounding code.

I normally fill the list from a @Factory
and then I also add a @DataModelSelection

Yes I got all that in the code - basically just took the example from the docs but change the Bean into EVENT and the DataModel into PAGE.

Now when select() is called the DataModel is null.
