before I begin I should say, I tried JSF several times but all off them is bad.

Why?

Easy Navigation (!): Why do a framework disables back button and uses non-sense URLs? you cannot bookmark a single page, do not even try to read the URL it all sucks.

Always POST: why ? all non-sense and more no redirect after any post ?

Restore View: Although it is in default life-cycle it would be %90 unnecessary and for any given insert page you will feed several combobox’s chechbox why ?

Complex Component Development: Although it is a component oriented framework it is harder to develop a component then a JSPTag.

Disable custom jsp tags all should be JSF oriented why ?

For All these choose any Action oriented framework: like struts,spring mvc,
