Adam This sounds great. Would be a great to start a openEHR GUI project and your stuff sounds like a fantastic basis. Just for curiosity: Why did you prefer chiba over orbeon? Also looked at both and orbeon seemed the more active project.
The Java Project needs a simple end-to-end demonstrator to show the power of the kernel component. The open source GUI project could be used for the presentation layer. Custom widgets based on templates/archetypes should be a goal in the long time. In my XUL experiment I played with XBL to create a masked edit. Honkala also suggests it in his thesis (http://lib.tkk.fi/Diss/2007/isbn9789512285662/isbn9789512285662.pdf). Though the current server-side XForms implementations don't support it (yet). Formsplayer and Mozilla XForms (both client side implementation) support it partially. We need to keep this discussion up!
