If you've ever filed an issue in the official JSF Specification Issue tracker [1], you know that the issue categories (called "subcomponents" in Issuezilla parlance) are useless. The Sun JSF team realizes this problem and have taken steps to address it. We now have new categories that map to the JSF subsystems. When you file new issues, please make an effort to find the right category.
