I started using JSF 2.0 with Facelets recently and got puzzled by new composite components knowing existing <ui:include> and other templating techniques offered by Facelets 1.x.
What is the difference between those approaches? Functionally they seem to offer about the same: <ui:param> vs <cc:attribute>, <ui:insert>+<ui:define> vs tag files, reuse of the existing templates. Is there anything besides syntax and clear interface specification in case of composite components? Could performance differ?
