Seam PortletBridge for Seam 2.2 and the Lifecycle ID

When creating a Seam Portlet, JBDS add the following entry to the web.xml:

<context-param>
<param-name>javax.faces.LIFECYCLE_ID</param-name>
<param-value>SEAM_PORTLET</param-value>
</context-param>

This cause the following exceptions:

14:20:00,573 ERROR [[/SeamPortletBridge]] StandardWrapper.Throwable

This can be easily fixed by removing the entry from the web.xml.

according to section 2.3.1 of this document: http://docs.jboss.org/portletbridge/docs/1.0.0.B4/en/html/configuration.html :
"This setting is not needed for Seam portlets version 2.1.x and up. "

We are using Seam 2.2.x exclusively with EPP 5 and above
