I'd even like to get rid of the ui:composition there and perhaps have something like "cc:component" or "cc:tag" as the wrapper.

We can also leverage the default namespace to cut out the unnecessary namespace prefixes:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<component xmlns="jsf:cc">
   <interface>
      <attribute name="name" required="true"/>
   </interface>
   <implementation>
      Hello, #{cc.attr.name}
   </implementation>
</component>

Notice that I'm not really changing all that much in JSF to get to this point. It's really just a shift in thinking (and recommending).

It's also a major shift in usability for page authors, so this proposal gets a hearty +1 from me. My original proposal to simplify the composite namespace was just the tip of the iceberg--thanks Dan, for carrying that proposal to its logical conclusion. I'd love to see this in the next maintenance release.
