Ok, feedback on my own problem. It seems that if you create a private variable and assign an IModel to it, then access it from within the onClick() method in a listview, that it doesn't always work. You have to explicitly add the model to the Link constructor for this to work.
It seems that the approach below doesn't always work in wicket. Thanks for the feedback so far.
