Because attributes have to be documented and maintained for every
component. They also don't work for non-Tomahawk components.
A securityContext approach is more flexible, maintainable, and
all-encompassing. We had a long discussion on this a long time ago
on the dev list. You could probably find it in the archives.

Per the comment "the attributes enabledOnUserRole and visibleOnUserRole
will be deprecated and replaced by rendered='#{securityContext..}'" on
TOMAHAWK-885[1], I am not sure I like this. Granted securityContext
provides a lot more control, but the attributes are easier to use and
document for the simple stuff.
Why are the attributes being deprecated?
When are the attribute scheduled to be deprecated?
Should their be an Jira issue for the deprecation?
If you would prefer to continue this discussion after the release of
MyFaces 1.1.5, I have no objections.
