Well, besides Ed giving Roberto a call, I'm not aware of a formal process.
But if folks here want it, the simplest way to ensure that it happens is for the EE EG
rep from your company to push for it (hint to Dan) - it seems small enough that it should
be contained inside the EE umbrella specification, and flow down to subordinate specs,
rather than being a separate spec itself.
As I understand it, if the JSF EG feels that this a feature that should be pushed to
another spec, it is the responsibility of the spec lead to take this up. But rest assured
if this doesn't happen, then we (Red Hat) can push this through other channels such as
our Java EE EG rep :-)
