I don't have a real example I can give you at the moment, sorry. I blogged a
little about how we used Dreamweaver and Wicket in our project here:
http://www.2rue.de/hacking/wicket/leveraging-wicket-templates-for-offline-viewing-with-dreamweaver/

We use a lot of <wicket:remove> and other stuff in our templates, because
that way we can do most of the styling and cross-browser testing (which is
always a PITA) using just an html editor and a browser. And as far as I am
concerned, it is really worth it.

You can point all your links and images to offline resources, as long as you
bind that tag to a wicket component. Wicket normally doesn't care what your
src attribute in an <img> is when you e.g. bind it to a
org.apache.wicket.markup.html.image.Image

I planned to write more about this topic though, as I'm really convinced
that this is one of the really great features of Wicket.
