The missing @FacesValidator support within ivy projects is already documented in soreconnect. See *#24770 Respect @FacesValidator annotation*
**The good message is. It will be possible with 5.1.8!**
We enrich the JSF runtime configuration with faces converters within ivy projects (respectively it's ProjectModelVersion at runtime). It's a technical bridge so that the JSF application understands the ProcessModel / ProcessModelVersion layout of an Ivy application.
This Until 5.1.7 this bridge has only been implemented for converters. But I see no evidence in the code that this has been done converters and not for faces validators. So that's why you have had to configure it in the global faces configuration manually.
