Going back to the faces module, instead of continuing with the org.jboss.seam.jsf and org.jboss.seam.faces package split in Seam 3, I think we should put all the faces classes under org.jboss.seam.faces and use appropriate sub-package names. So in this case, I propose org.jboss.seam.faces.application.SeamApplicationFactory and org.jboss.seam.faces.application.SeamApplication for overriding the default Application impl. We will also need the org.jboss.seam.el package (perhaps module).<br>

+1 for this idea. The module dependencies are turning out to be quite difficult to unravel, if we put our foot down and say that all faces-related/dependent functionality just goes in the faces module this will greatly help to simplify things.</blockquote>
<div><br>I think it's just a matter of zooming out to look at the bigger picture when things seem like they are in a twist.<br><br>Instead of thinking of replacing the class 1-for-1, think if perhaps there is base functionality that would be relevant for any environment and specific functionality for a framework like JSF. Then, you can create a generic class and then specialize it using a deployment type and @Specializes. Two examples of this so far are StatusMessages/FacesStatusMessages and Expressions/FacesExpressions. I believe that Selector is another candidate for this. There is nothing specific to JSF about a selector, but it just happens to be in the JSF package in Seam 2.1.<br>
