I hope it does soon.

Component.getInstance("<<<ComponentName>>>")

is such a pain in the ass, and makes unit testing real difficult

As we discussed no - as JSF controls the lifecycle, not us.

Actually, Max Ross and I talked about this after you asked about it - of course, you can unit test this stuff, you just have to be careful about not calling Component.getInstance in your unit test - move out your validation logic like

public boolean safeValidate(SeamComponent1 cmp1, SeamComponent2 cmp2) {

Test this method rather than the validate method, and pass in null or the correct object or...
