Choosing A Webhost:
A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to provide their own website accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center. Web hosts can also provide data center space and connectivity to the Internet for servers they do not own to be located in their data center, called colocation. more...

Yeah, I think this is a bug. What I think is going on here is that the
implicit mapping is overriding the commandLink's value [1].

What I mean is that the anchored tag is mapped to the outputLink by default.
We should check to see if there is an action symbol override before using the
href. Or, just look at the componentType after the jsfid overrides to make
sure it's an outputLink. The outputLink puts the href in the components value
attribute where a commandLink puts the text in the value attribute.

Please create a JIRA ticket for this one.
