Seam-gen should generate pages using templates relative to web application, not the pages themselves
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBSEAM-1484
                 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-1484
             Project: JBoss Seam
          Issue Type: Patch
          Components: Tools
    Affects Versions: 1.3.0.ALPHA
            Reporter: Dejan Krsmanovic
            Priority: Minor
         Attachments: seam-gen.txt

Seam-gen currently creates facelets xhtml pages having ui-composition element with template attribute specified relative to page itself. This is OK if all pages are stored in the root folder of web application. However, when you start refactoring and moving pages to separate folders you need to update template attribute in all ui-composition elements in moved pages. 
So, I think seam-gen should generate pages with ui-composition element which references template relative to web-app, and not the page. In other words instead of:

<ui:composition ...   template="layout/template.xhtml">

it should be:

<ui:composition ...   template="/layout/template.xhtml">

With this change, you can move xhtml pages to any folder and template would still be referenced correctly.
