What I don't like on that bean is, that it creates via
javax.faces.context.ResponseWriter the markup (here a xml list). Just
my $0.02
Just FYI, using a response writer is optional. The handler function has the responsibility to create the response -- whatever technique you want to use is fine. But if you *are* emitting dynamically constructed XML, response writer is handy for the same reasons it is handy when writing a renderer. Most importantly, it deals with all the stuff like embedded quote characters in attribute values.
