I am using the PaneGrid a lot, and everytime i need a header or a footer edit
the JSP source by putting

<f:facet name="header">
</f:facet>

Is there a way of doing this visually or much faster? It seems that the Visual
Editor doesn't recognize the header and footer even after putting the necessary
code.

Thanks,
james

---------------
GridPanel is missing this functionality.  It has properties for header/footer
classes, but not properties to define the values for them.  User can add this
manually.  I added:
                            <f:facet name="header">
                                <h:outputText binding="#{Page1.outputText1}"
id="outputText1" value="My Header"/>
                            </f:facet>
and
                            <f:facet name="footer">
                                <h:outputText binding="#{Page1.outputText2}"
id="outputText2" value="My Footer"/>
                            </f:facet>

Evaluation:
Essential problem is that we have no visual support for facets in the designer.
We need facet drop targets. Also missing a "get faceet" method in design-time API.
