To give another point of view, I think that DTOs are a design smell that should be avoided normally, at least in an environment without remoting, and the Core J2EE Patterns give me a vague memory of being depressing workarounds for fundamental problems in the old J2EE (EJB 1 and 2 mostly) versions ;) In every Wicket project I've been in, we have had Wicket manipulate our domain objects directly, and this has worked in around 95 % of the cases. The rest we have handled case by case. Surely your mileage may vary.
