rich:fileUpload doesn't re-render h:messages

[mazz]

I have a file upload component and I can't get it to re-render a messages component:

My xhtml snippet:

<h:messages id="pluginsmessages" ... />
...
<rich:fileUpload
id="upload"
fileUploadListener="#{UIBean.fileUploadListener}"
immediateUpload="false"
autoclear="false"
allowFlash="false">
<a4j:support event="onuploadcomplete" reRender="pluginsmessages" />
</rich:fileUpload>
...

My UIBean's fileUploadListener(UploadEvent event) method is getting called and I am adding messages to the context within that fileUploadListener method.

Any ideas what magic is needed to get a file upload component to re-render h:messages after ALL files have been uploaded? I want to tell the user, "You have uploaded N files" where N is greater than 0 (the number of files that was added/uploaded by the RF file upload component)

mazz, I'm having a similar issue. I tried to following the examples at these two pages:

http://markmail.org/message/vzjfgh7jrbjnn25x
http://jroller.com/a4j/entry/ajax_regions_and_output_panels

here's the "always re-render" option:

<a4j:outputPanel ajaxRendered="true">
<h:messages ... />
</a4j:outputPanel>
...
<rich:fileUpload
id="upload"
fileUploadListener="#{UIBean.fileUploadListener}"
immediateUpload="false"
autoclear="false"
allowFlash="false">
</rich:fileUpload>
...

and here's an attempt at re-rendering one specific, named panel:

<a4j:outputPanel ajaxRendered="true"
id="messagesPanel">
<h:messages ... />
</a4j:outputPanel>
...
<rich:fileUpload
id="upload"
fileUploadListener="#{UIBean.fileUploadListener}"
immediateUpload="false"
autoclear="false"
allowFlash="false">
<a4j:support event="onuploadcomplete"
reRender="messagesPanel" />
</rich:fileUpload>
...

neither of those approached worked.

unfortunatelly the issue is known and still not resolved.
