Hi,
Looks okay. I'd however as a dumb enduser without reading the documentation
intuitively expect that the <f:focus> also runs when loading the page when
being placed outside an input component, exactly like as PrimeFaces
<p:focus> does (
http://www.primefaces.org/showcase/ui/misc/focus.xhtml).
Perhaps this could be added to the feature set.
And, make sure that it also works as expected when used in UIData/UIRepeat
components.
Cheers, B
