Perhaps it is premature to use Tiles2 with JSF in production.

Tomahawk has built-in support to use tiles that is included with
struts 1.x, this is path I plan to take.

I created a feature request to add tiles2 support to tomahawk:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TOMAHAWK-1115

Perhaps you could vote on it and help get this going ?
