[jsr344-experts] [949-WindowId] Best place to specify creating the windowId?

Hello Experts,

I've been discussing this issue on ##jsf but due to timezone issues I
think it's best to take it asynchronous.

My first order of business was to edit the proposal on the MYFACES wiki [1]
so that I could use it as a starting point for writing the spec
language. We made some progress with this, but it's still not where I
need it to be so I can just sit down and write it out.

Here are some questions I still have after reading the proposal in its
current state:

Q.2 aside from before RestoreView, what other pre-phase actions are required?

Q.3 post-phase action is currently empty. What possible actions could
there be here?

Q.4 It seems like the right place to handle the creation of the windowId
is in the FacesServlet. Why not there?

I think Q.4 is the most pressing. Can someone answer me that one?

Thanks,

Ed
