What you're saying does make sense...I'm just looking for something that takes the approach of saying...."Ok. You can build the app the traditional way like this...but here is another way. Let's do this *one* step at a time and compare how it could be done with traditional methods (shown) as opposed to the OOP way (also shown, of course).
Also, your "bean" approach is fascinating...but what a bean? Is it like an array or session-type variables that exist in memory and are available everywhere? And to have to reference every user in a table, or to know about them reference them as in the "Kear" bean, seems strange and difficult. Sounds like you'd have to memorize all the users in your table to reference them...?!?!?! (Obviously not getting it...)
