After a quick look at the view action concept, I strongly agree for the
need for this (closely follows what I have had in JSFT for years --
initPage event and beforeCreate event).
However, I wonder if some of the details are a result of implementation
limitations (missing events). I think this may be solved in a more
standard-JSF-way by adding the missing events and perhaps enhancing the
navigation capabilities. Then <h:event> can be used to accomplish the
same -- no need for a new tag/concept.
Thoughts?
