> Although loading of the just few CSS and JavaScript files with LOAD_xxx_STRATEGY=ALL significant reduces a number of network requests, these files are too huge ( up to 500kb ). Because most of the real world applications uses just a  subset of the entire RichFaces components library it makes sense to create application-wide assembly, with the only necessary scripts and styles.
> Ideas:
> 1) It should be Maven plugin ( ant task is optional ), what parses all web application pages and extracts list of the RichFaces components references.
> 2) Because all RichFaces components keeps information about referenced resources in the renderer, that tool is able to extract that information and assembly application-specific files.
> Initial limitations:
> 1) Parce XML pages only. Parsing of the JSP format is more difficult, thus it could be postponed for the next releases. 
> 2) This is compilation-time utility only.
