Hi Hantsy, PageActions are indeed action based, but the new Behavior interface is targeted at Controls allowing one to build Ajax aware controls. For example, the AutoCompleteTextField uses an internal Behavior to enhance the Field with Ajax callback support.
The click-jquery[1] project enhances Clicks Ajax support by integrating jquery taconite[2], providing multiple DOM update support. Why don't we build our own JS lib? Because I think its largely unnecessary. Unlike Wicket, Click is stateless with predictable and bookmarkable URLs. So its easy to integrate with well established JS libs (jQuery, Prototype et al.) without reinventing the wheel. Again see click-jquery[1] which integrates with a wide array of jQuery plugins including jQuery Form and JSTree. I would also like Click core to stay independent of a specific JS library implementation.
