Thanks Adam. I have two follow up questions:

- How does JSP 2.1/JSF 1.2 solve this issue?

That's a very complicated question, but briefly speaking
it makes <f:verbatim> unnecessary (and a no-op).

- What would be the pros and cons of choosing JSP 2.1/JSF 1.2 vs.
Facelets?

Facelets:  better in almost every way - *much* faster, great
 templating features, much easier to write custom tags, etc.
JSP: the "standard", so better supported by component sets -
 but does your app server even support JSP 2.1 yet?  (Few do).

Yes. Also in JSP 2.1/JSF 1.2,

I see that I am running into this problem only if this code is inside

 It's not at all specific to tr:document.  It's specific to any
JSF tag that controls rendering of its children. For example,
h:panelGroup.  Most Trinidad tags control child rendering
(for PPR support, for one).
