Viacheslav Kabanovich commented on JBIDE-9198:
----------------------------------------------

I suggest to do without warning that the project is not faceted. Preference page 'Project Facets' after applying 'Convert to faceted form...' ignores attempts to cancel that change, so that customers are used to the fact that as soon as they played with facets of a project, it will remain faceted forever (until dot-files are modified manually). And additional warning just encumbers UI.

> The Seam Faces impl project defines facelet files that are used as composite components vy projects that use Seam Faces.  When I try to edit one of these facelet files, I am prompted to add JSF capabilities to the project in order to get JSF completion.  However I am unable to add JSF capabilities, as I am required to point to an exisiting web.xml file.  The Seam Faces impl project does not have a web.xml file.  I does however have a web-fragment.xml (I don't know if that's relevant).
> It would be nice to take advantage of the JSF tooling in "JSF library projects" without necessarily having a web.xml file.
