FYI, there's already a framework named "Sails" for Java:

Hi all,
I worked on a way to do wpf/development the rails way. It's heavily
inspired by rucola and its interaction with interface builder.
I created and will finish this framework when there is more possible
with databinding between DLR languages and XAML.
you can find it on github. http://github.com/casualjim/sails/tree/master
If people think this is a great idea and want to pitch in all help is
welcome of course :) If you hate it please let me know and why.
The readme:
Sails
=====
Sails is a framework inspired by the Rails and rucola frameworks. It
offers a rails-like way of developing applications
with IronRuby and Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF).
This framework uses the pattern Model - ViewModel - View -
Controller (M-VM-V-C). It should be able to run on both WPF
and Silverlight.
The idea is that the views can be created using a design tool like
Blend for example and just save that xaml as is. The
designer should not need to use anything else than drag and drop to
create a GUI design. The behaviors are then added to
the view by using predefined behaviors in the framework or by
defining your own behavior.
The framework then generates a proxy for the view which will be used
to transparently wire up the commands in the
behaviors to controller actions.
You should be able to define a controller a little like this
(doesn't work yet and will most likely change in the
future):
class MyController < Sails::Controllers::Base
view_object :some_model, :refresh => :refresh_some_model,
:refresh_interval => 2.minutes
view_action :some_action, :target => :my_button, :action =>
:some_action_implementation
def refresh_some_model
# code here
end
def some_action_implementation
# code here
end
end
