Sounds interesting. I have a system for automating some of this with CF9 ORM. I add validation metadata to the object properties and use the metadata to generate both server-side validation and a client-side script to use with the jQuery validation plugin.
I also have a system for generating the HQL joins and where clauses for requests for filtered results coming in from the jqGrid plugin. Currently, I hand code a whitelist of field names that will be used to replace the values submitted via the grid, but this section could likely be converted to operate off the object properties. I would like to wrap this up into something for riaforge one day.
