My experience with the struts-faces integtation library is that
MyFaces (at least in 1.0.7) still has some fatal incompatibilities
that make it difficult to work with.  That being said, the build.xml
for the integration library examples (such as
struts-faces/example1-webapp/build.xml) has the conditional stuff for
using MyFaces versus the JSF RI to be copied.  If someone wants to
create a Shale+Tiles demo I'd be interested ... but personally I think
the value of such an integration would be *much* higher if it was done
in such a way that it would run on any JSF implementation, not just
MyFaces.
