You can put unadorned html inside <f:view>. I haven't noticed that myfaces is stricter about this. It doesn't help much in any case if you're using tiles and most of your pages are in <f:subview>. It also isn't all that apparent whether or not a component renders it's children or not, so you usually have to find out through trial and error.
