Hi.

It seems to be +no way+ to have stateless behavior in myfaces.
I'm using javax.faces.STATE_SAVING_METHOD = *client* in web.xml (... as also 
described in this post: 
[https://stackoverflow.com/questions/36650846/when-does-jsf-creates-a-session-what-does-it-puts-in-a-session-map|https://stackoverflow.com/questions/36650846/when-does-jsf-creates-a-session-what-does-it-puts-in-a-session-map)])
 but myfaces always create a session to transfer the FacesContext encoding ( 
why ?)
I've noticed that it happens in *FaceletViewDeclarationLanguage* 
getResponseEncoding method.
I've already tested my code in mojarra (2.2 and 2.3) and it works fine (it 
don't creates any session if not +explicitly+ requested through a SessionScope 
or ViewScope Bean)
This is a big problem because any, simple, JSF (myfaces) page is virtually 
exposed to DOS or flooding attacks generating zombie sessions)
Does in myfaces exists a way (that I don't know) to manage stateless pages?

Thanks.

NC
