Execute script expressions in WTKX component attributes
-------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: PIVOT-573
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-573
             Project: Pivot
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: wtk-wtkx
    Affects Versions: 1.5
         Environment: Using patched Pivot 1.5
            Reporter: Michael Allman


The attached patch allows users to put arbitrary script expressions in wtkx 
component attributes.  This provides a superset of existing functionality, 
which allows the user to reference an object by its wtkx:id.

For example, I have a Java class ms.allman.pivot.Validators with a static 
method getZipCodeValidator() that returns a Validator.  Then the following WTKX 
fragment sets a zip code validator on the given TextInput:

<TextInput 
validator="$Packages.ms.allman.pivot.Validators.getZipCodeValidator()"/>

(This example assumes the use of the JavaScript engine for scripting.)
