Thanks for the suggestion, but it is alas not that simple.

As far as I understand...
In response to an AJAX request, 
PartialViewContextImpl#processPartialRendering is called.

Lines 468 and following is :

             String currentEncoding = writer.getCharacterEncoding();
             writer.writePreamble("<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\""+
                 (currentEncoding == null ? "UTF-8" : currentEncoding) 
+"\"?>");
             writer.startDocument();

             writer.writeAttribute("id", 
viewRoot.getContainerClientId(_facesContext),"id");

The exception is triggered when the attribute is set. An element is 
opened (and, as far as I understand, not closed) by writer.startDocument();

If ones goes up in the stack, and take a look at 
org.apache.myfaces.view.facelets.FaceletViewDeclarationLanguage.renderView(FaceletViewDeclarationLanguage.java:1891) 
https://myfaces.apache.org/core22/myfaces-impl/xref/org/apache/myfaces/view/facelets/FaceletViewDeclarationLanguage.html#1891 
, one can read
lots of comments which makes me think that things are not simple and 
that there might be side effects in some complex cases.


I see that I forgot to indicate the versions I am using...

PrimeFaces 5.3.1
MyFaces 2.2.8
OpenWebBeans 1.6.2

All this running on Tomcat 8.0.22 (in dev) or 8.0.28 (in prod).
