If the jsf integration somehow set up a situation where both
javax.faces.api.mojarra-2.2.0-m05 and a javax.faces.api.main that contained different
versions of the same classes were visible, that would probably be an issue (I haven't
thought about it deeply) but that issue has nothing to do with patching. And I assume your
impl was designed to deal with that.
Yes, the JSF subsystem impl deals with that. At most, one JSF api and one JSF
impl module can be loaded per WAR deployment. So class conflicts can not occur.
Thanks for the feedback.
