Discrepancy of client-ID, prependID and findComponent

[eclipse-faces-bot]

see https://javaserverfaces.dev.java.net/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=1153

Creating a form with prependId="false" will lead to client-IDs of child components of this form where the
path to be passed to findComponent() being different then the client-ID.
This leads to confusion, especially now with compositecomponents and f:ajax where referencing
components outside of the same namingcontainer will be used more often.

This could for example be solved by making the form not behave like a namingcontainer in
findComponent() if prependId == false.

This one seems too subtle to change at this point in the lifetime of JSF.
