Peter Parson commented on WICKET-2471:
--------------------------------------

No, unfortunately this does not work in my case, because I've got behaviors 
dealing with this property, too (which involves getting *and* eventually 
setting it), and those would have needed to have the property dispatched 
"real-time" and should not be called either before or afterwards. Well, I'll 
have to find another solution then, alright.

Regarding to your argument:

I can break quite a lot of contracts when creating a custom component, e.g. 
breaking the setter contract by overriding set/getVisible is allowed, though?

I do not understand why wicket devs mistrust the framework users so often. 
After all, we're java developers too, and if we're making silly things, our 
apps do break, alright - but that should not be a wicket dev's problem. My 
component, my silly thing, my app, my problem.
In my book, the extensive usage of final in this framework is a big letdown 
when it comes to talking about extensibility.

By now I've ran into quite some problems because of method being final, often 
having to do workarounds when there would have been an easy way, or, in the 
worst cases, duplicating complete wicket classes just to change a few lines 
because overwriting the specific method did was not possible.

I know this certainly is not a place for discussion, but I would be really 
happy if the wicket devs could be a little more confident in your users and 
re-thinked their access modifier policy.

> It would be helpful to be able to overwrite getter and setter for 
> escapeModelStrings.
> Scenario: custom component with Label inside.
> It should be possible to pass CustomComponent#escapeModelStrings property 
> through to Label#escapeModelStrings like this:
> @Override
> public Component setEscapeModelStrings(boolean escape) {
> return myLabel.setEscapeModelStrings(escape);
> }
> @Override
> public boolean getEscapeModelStrings(boolean escape) {
> return myLabel.getEscapeModelStrings();
> }
