I was thinking more that I would just extend standard TextArea and TextField
components but override onComponentTag to replace whatever tagName was
supplied by the HTML monkey. So Wicket would continue doing its good stuff
but I wouldn't need two different HTML fragments or placeholder elements...
Do you think onComponentTag is a safe extension point for this? ListChoice
and PasswordTextBox onComponentTag are final :(
Thanks
