Hi,

I have been using JSF for a few months now (Eclipse and WTP) and I am
disappointed with JSP's broken implementation when combining HTML and JSF
tags, which I have encountered in Tiles-based applications. (See
http://www.onjava.com/pub/a/onjava/2004/06/09/jsf.html)

I have been converting my latest JSF project to use Facelets instead of JSPs
eith Tiles for view definition and find it much better.
Facelets recommends using the .xhtml extension for view source files and I
have found that Eclipse WTP does not carry forward correct code completion
for XML tags defined in files of this type, as it does so well for JSP
files. (Eclipse offers the HTML editor as the default editor for this file
type, which does not seem to suffice, unless I'm doing something wrong!)

I am convinced that facelets will soon be the technology of choice over JSPs
for developing JSF views.
I would suggest seriously considering Facelets support in Eclipse JSF, even
if to just initially provide an editor which will better support the .xhtml
format for editing facelet source files. (Code completion, etc.)
