Hi I think maybe there is a misunderstanding of idea behind the ViewController. It is exactly for mapping one Controller! against a view - Hence the name ViewController.
Just out of curiosity: Why would you want multiple viewcontrollers against a view? I think you may have misunderstood something. You can use multiple beans! To feed a view with data.

A key feature of JSF (IMHO) is the ability to have multiple backing beans / view controllers that contribute to a single page. An extension of this interface could allow other mapping strategies to associate multiple beans with a given page that can then receive phase change events. A possiblte mapping strategy would be a XmlViewControllerMapper which takes a XML file that associates view ids with bean names. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
