Hi there,
I think that most of the use cases described could perfectly be
realized using JSF 2.2 features.
The problem I observe is often that people are not familiar with
all the recent JSF features that were added to the spec.
If we would enhance JSF with further possibilities regarding an
action-based framework, there is a risk of "overloading" JSF.
Of course I am in favour of enhancing JSF according to user
feedback. But I am not sure whether it is a good idea to integrate
too much into it.
Regards,
Andy
