KM> <h:inputText value="#{myBean.value}">
KM> <f:passThroughAttribute name="aria-required" value="true"/>
KM> <f:passThroughAttribute name="aria-invalid" value="true"/>
KM> <f:passThroughAttribute name="..." value="..."/>
KM> <f:passThroughAttribute name="..." value=".../>
KM> <f:passThroughAttribute name="..." value="..."/>
KM> <f:passThroughAttribute name="..." value="..."/>
KM> </h:inputText>
KM> That's an awful lot of markup for a few extra attributes.
At this point, we just look to tool autocomplete.
