If your backing bean "implements ViewController" then you are going to be *required* to implement all the methods (even if they are empty) to avoid compile errors. The simplest thing to do is "extends AbstractViewController". Besides the fact that this class implements (as empty methods) all the callbacks, so you only have to override the ones you care about, it also offers you a bunch of useful helper methods too.
