This is the place.

You can store non-serializable data as persistent page properties or in the
visit but you'll
defeat clustering if you do so.  Think in terms of reconstructing your data;
so if you can't store a database object, store its primary key.  If you
can't store a connection pool, store its JNDI name, etc.  Use synthetic
properties, or just-in-time calculation, to go from the "seed" back to the
full value.

Not as such ... how would Tapestry know which class to use in which place?

However, if you carefully read the docs, there's the concept of "helper
beans".  These
are addtional JavaBeans you can instantiate and configure (with some control
over their lifecyle).
Often, reusable objects such as a validation delegate can be created as
helper beans.
