We have many components that require heavy operations to gather the necessary
data, and I was wondering if there was a way to cache the Wicket objects
that have pulled the data.

I have seen similar questions come up before, and the common answer was to
simply cache the data being pulled, and not the Wicket objects. Because we
have components pulling data from different places in different ways, this
would be like putting a padlock on my TV and guitar instead of locking the
door to my apartment. It also means that, if I got a new stereo, I'd have to
remember to handle that new case as well, instead of it being handled by the
door lock automagically. My last example in this unusual metaphor would be
my iPod: It's too cheap to explicitly handle, but it's nice to have the lock
on the front door take care of it anyway.

My particular app would benefit from a per-user cache based on the way data
is pulled. Pages are different for each user, but once they view the page,
data rarely changes. I imagine this would be as easy as stuffing something
in the Wicket session. It would stagnate with the HTTP session naturally.

My app would also need a few hooks or event listeners to trigger a clear.
For instance, if a user deletes a Horse from his Barn, I would want the
BarnPanel to know it needs to refresh on the next rendering.

Is there anything like this that exists in Wicket? Or pieces I could use to
build it? I think it would be very handy.
