At least in terms of the validators/converters/etc (non-api) parts of commons, it is not intended that Tobago or any other project depend on these. These are additional components made available to the end users. So it's true that some small subset of Tobago users won't be able to use it. The same is true for Trinidad and Tomahawk users.
I don't think that's reason enough to require that these projects support JSF 1.1. I still think the conglomeration of developer-targeted utilities/apis and end-user-targeted components is a mistake, and I was under the impression that each of these pieces was independent of each other. If that's the case, there's no reason why the api/utils developer-targeted projects can't maintain JSF 1.1 support while leaving the component end-user-targeted projects at JSF 1.2.
