Sean,
Why should that be necessary? Does anyone know if this is a faces
issue or something specific to MyFaces?
as Kalle pointed out, that is also inside of RI. Hans Bergsten wrote about this issue. It will be addressed in JSF 1.2 or may be 2.0. I guess...
here is more: http://www.onjava.com/pub/a/onjava/2004/06/09/jsf.html (first page contains that...)
