The easiest but not completely enforcible, is to create your out tld.

Define a tld that has only the JSP tags you want page authors to use.
Define your own prefix to map to this tld.

You have to realize that all the components are available and can be
rendered
in the page via Java in a managed bean.

But with a "custom" tld a JSP author cannot include a tag that is not in
the tld.

Get the original tld out of the webui-jsf.jar and edit it to taste as a
"custom" tld
as described above.

Or edit the original tld and update the jar with it and then you can use
the same
prefix as the distribution.
