After upgrading from Trinidad 1.0.5 and Seam 1.2.1 to Trinidad 1.2.7 and Seam 2.0.1.GA and lots of fine tuning my application now mostly works fine again.

However I can't add any faces messages!
It seems to me that trinidad triggers the Seam resource loader at inconvenient times.

Can anybody make sense of this exception?
Any workaround?
