Hi! I appreciate the effort required to get to know Tapestry. It's true that being on the project for a long time can make it hard to see the pain of the learning curve.
Having a single point of entry for every object you might want to use seems a little out there though. If you like this design you could definitely create a service that injects all the thing you think are core and then just inject that service.
