Actually it would be
getViewRoot().getFacet(UIViewRoot.METADATA_FACET).getChildren(), but yes.
However, it is fairly typically when accessing the children that you are
looking for a particular type, such as UIViewParameter. I just think it is
somewhat strange (and inconvenient) to only offer getViewParameters() and
not something that can return other types on demand.
