I would have to say that the more similar to the JSF XML + the additional nested tag, the better since people are lazy, like me. Also, while you at it, could you make the 404 default to the one that is set in the web.xml file? And one more thing, a bit off the topic, the long running conversation url and the servlet filter don't work well together in seam versions, lot of hacks for me on this. Thanks the hard work.
