> If authorization fails, and the user is not logged in, Faces looks for a @LoginViewId to redirect to, and returns a 401 response if none is found.  A similar story applies for the @AccessDeniedViewId
> It would be better to instead throw an exception, that Seam Catch can intercept.  If not intercepted, this exception would eventually lead to a 401 response.
