Whether or not you run in development mode should not depend on exploded/unexploded. Some tools used in development would deploy unexploded. Development mode is used for more than just hot deploy of JSP and Facelets. It also determines what kind of error messages you see in the browser. So even if a developer isn't interested in JSP/Facelets hot deploy he would certainly want to see the error detail that development mode provides in the browser.
