swingbuilder tabbedpane does not allow bind to selectedindex

From Griffon's JIRA http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GRIFFON-130

When trying to bind a integer variable from the model to selectedindex on tabbedpane in view, throws error.

Ex:
tabbedPane(id:'tabs', selectedIndex: bind(value:model.tabSelected))

Unknown macro: { ... }

I'm a bit new to griffon so I tried variations to make sure I'm doing this right but saw someone else mention that bindings do not work on selectedIndex on tabbedPane and to file a bug. No bug was filed when I did a search so I wanted to make sure this went in.

selectedIndex receives special treatment in TabbedPaneFactory which may interfere with binding
