I've been doing a lot with Martin's data binding framework in 0.8.3-pre. Truly amazing stuff! Very, very nice work, Martin.
One thing I've noticed, however, is that as of 0.8.3-pre, the "value" property of SelectBox and List are deprecated. Looking at the code, I can see why this is -- the goal there is to standardize on the single selection mixin -- but for binding we need a property to bind to. It works right now to bind to the "value" property, but you get warnings about the property being deprecated. Could those warnings be removed? And, in general, there are probably going to be other cases like this, where you'd like to establish a bidirectional binding but cannot, because the object in question lacks an appropriate property. It's almost like we need a way to bind to either a property, event, *or* some arbitrary piece of code that knows how to get/set/reset a (fake or hidden) property of the target object. (It may be possible to do this already with delegation, but I must confess I don't fully understand that part of the code yet.)
