Hi Quintin,

Thanks for your interest in the JSF Tools Project. All the features you 
have requested are enhancements that we would very much like to add to the 
project. We have enhancement requests for some of them in the bugzilla. 
See,

> Navigation page of Faces Config. Editor should support adding new pages - 
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=173731

> Faces-Config editor should allow New Class wizards - 
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=167194

We have not addressed these due to resource constraints. We are always on 
the lookout for contribution from the community and we would very much 
appreciate your  contribution. You can see examples of past contributions 
that we have included in the latest release in this page: 
http://www.eclipse.org/webtools/releases/3.0.0/newandnoteworthy/jsf.php

The first step is to log enhancement requests in the bugzilla, 
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?product=Java%20Server%20Faces

You can them provide a patch implementing the feature. We also appreciate 
any junit tests for the code contribution. We will review the 
implementation, run it through an IP review  and then integrate it to the 
main code. Simple!

If you need any further clarification on this, please post to the 
newsgroup. I am looking forward to your particiaption.

Thanks
