AutoLabelResolver and form component / label order#

When using wicket:for attribut on a <label/>, Wicket retrieves related form component and call setOutputMarkupId(true) to create a link between the label and the form component. However this will not work if the form component has already been rendered without markup id. This is the case when the form component comes first in html, e.g.:

<div class="custom-control custom-switch">
  <input type="checkbox" class="custom-control-input" id="customSwitch1">
  <label class="custom-control-label" for="customSwitch1">Toggle this switch element</label>
</div>

Workaround: explicit call to setOutputMarkupId(true) on form component.
