REST kinda mandates to have a stateless application design. Ie the necessary state is always passed through each request. No sure JSF can cope with that.

Why not? JSF's state management is only for the UI ( the component tree). JSF always marshalls the data back and forth through POST. So really if you put the UI aside, it is stateless. There is some gray area, but I think it's feasible to use JSF this way.
