latter versions of JSF use annotations to address these issues.
Don't count on it. JSF 2.0 is still pretty soft, and their focus seems to be more on some other things (like Ajax). I'll be interested, actually, to see what does make it into JSF 2.0. I haven't been following that particular thing because I hated JSF so much when I first saw it.

But I have to admit that technologies can get a lot better with time - it seems that in some cases the developers listen to the community and good things happen. Take a look at EJB3. Through the use of annotations and a revamp of the entire philosophy to take advantage of things that work (like Hibernate), EJB3 looks nothing like older EJB implementations and in fact it may be worth revisiting.

My latest article on MC gives an overview:
