FYI, Brian Fitzgerald posted a Mach-II filter he wrote that is sorta of 
like event-bean but for transfer.  The thread is here with a link to the 
zip download:

Kurt already mentioned we're looking at a generic way for people to 
plugin different bean utils into event-bean.  The BeanUtils.cfc is the 
guts behind event-bean.  So Matt you could use that CFC to populate your 
beans by calling setBeanAutoFields() with the bean and the event-args 
collection.

We are also upgrading event-bean in Mach-II to help with populate of 
nested beans (which it current does not support).  This is in 
conjunction with the nest bean support with data binding that will be 
available the Mach-II form tag lib which is already in the BER / repo.  
I'm getting out topic here, but just wanted to mention that we are 
looking on we can improve integration with other frameworks and make 
things more simple.

Best,
Peter
