             Summary: Cleanup Facelets Initialization Code and decouple 
facelets taglibrary config parsing
                 Key: MYFACES-3812
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-3812
             Project: MyFaces Core
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: JSR-344
            Reporter: Leonardo Uribe
            Assignee: Leonardo Uribe


In JSF 2.0, Facelets initialization code was just put in place to work right 
from facelets 1.1.x, but there was not included properly into MyFaces algorithm 
that loads configuration.

In this moment, half of the initialization of MyFaces Core is done at startup 
and the other half is done when FaceletViewDeclarationLanguage is created, 
which happens at the first request.

The code that parse facelets .taglib.xml is a simple sax parser that 
manipulates directly a TagLibrary. The problem with this is this config 
information once parsed cannot be serialized. Parse files is a slow process, so 
we need some classes like with org.apache.myfaces.config.element.FacesConfig, 
and provide implementation that can be serialized. The idea is just attach the 
information to FacesConfig using custom classes, and add a new source for 
FacesConfig information. In that way, it is possible to provide custom 
implementations of org.apache.myfaces.spi.FacesConfigurationProvider and 
override all MyFaces configuration in one step. The only exception is all web 
config params, but that's not a problem, because that information is managed 
and optimized for fast access by the web server.

This is something we need to do before 2.2.x release.
