<totalPages>-tag for pdf generation
-----------------------------------

                 Key: JBSEAM-4464
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-4464
             Project: Seam
          Issue Type: Feature Request
            Reporter: Robert Becker

When creating official documents it is often required to add something like "Page X of Y" to the footer. The p:pageNumber-tag provides the first value whereas a totalPages-tag is missing.

Márcio Dantas created and published a wokarround for this under http://seamframework.org/Community/SeamPdfPageXOfY but this approach is somewhat "dirty".

I see that it culd be problematic to provide the number of total pages while rendering the document so perhaps a placeholder could be used and altered when onCloseDocument in UIDocument is called.
