Hi Dan,
How is <s:viewAction ... /> different than <f:event /> (besides that it
is not generalized)?
FYI, I have found firing a "page-level" event at the beginning of the
restoreView phase to be more useful than before rendering. In
JSFTemplating the event is called "initPage", although I also support
"beforeEncode" (at the component or page level).

I have implemented the view action proposal that we had implemented
around the time we introduced view parameters. I did so using a
PreRenderViewEvent listener and a custom component, <s:viewAction>,
which is defined in the <f:metadata> facet. I'm hoping that this
combination with make it into JSF 2.1 (or even the MR if that is
possible).
