Hi Danielo The linkcatcher widget is a hangover from a much earlier stage of TW5's development, before we had general purpose messages and action widgets.
Now, I think we need a more general "messagecatcher" widget that can catch any type of message, and perform a sequence of actionwidgets in response. Passing messages up the widget tree has turned out to be a powerful technique, but I don't think chaining is the best way to perform a sequence of actions; that's what we've now got action widgets for. Best wishes Jeremy.
