Thanks! Igor / Martin About halos, they are not completely possible but not because a Wicket issue but because how the JVM/Java works: maybe is possible to display halos but the "killer" feature of them is that you can edit the component source directly from the web page (that's easy to do in Smalltalk because how the VM/Image works).
Anyway sorry for the harsh beginning :) and many thanks for the information!!
