Hello Volunteers,

One of the issues I wanted to resolve for our JavaOne EDR is the ancient
JAVASERVERFACES_SPEC_PUBLIC-1 Multi-field validation. I started working
on this in earnest on Friday and took inspiration from the excellent
work done by Bauke and Arjan on OmniFaces <o:validateBean />. Thanks to
Manfred for pointing that out to me.

I've done the work in the misnamed JAVASERVERFACES-1 branch in Mojarra.
Thanks to Manfred's work we've moved to java.net git instead of SVN. I
haven't merged it to master yet, but I have kept the branch up to date
with master so the merge should be easy.

I've published the proposed API in our snapshot repo at [1].

The complete specification of the feature spans two locations.

1. The vdldoc for the new tag <f:validateWholeBean> [2]

2. The javadoc for the existing BeanValidator.validate [3]

Please review this proposal and let me have feedback by 13:00 UTC Friday
25 September 2015.

Feel free to check out the JAVASERVERFACES-1 branch if you like. Git
details are in a message Manfred sent to dev_at_javaserverfaces. [4].

Thanks,

Ed
