That looks pretty good.  I too am attempting to build a RIA with ExtJS using
Wicket as my back-end.  On first look it seems like the two should be a
great fit as both rely heavily on building a hierarchical tree of
components.  If I could build a set of custom wicket components to output
javascript instead of HTML, my java developers could snap components
together without having to fiddle with the complexity of ExtJS on a regular
basis.

But I am having a problem in that wicket wants markup for things that I want
ext to build through javascript methods.  For example, right now I am trying
to build my menu.  Wicket wants me to use a Link based class or button, but
I really just want to output some javascript that will create the menu
toolbar and component and snap them into the viewport.

I am using a JavascriptPackageresource to create a HeaderContributor in the
top level object, and scanning my child components for my custom components
to contribute javascript at the right time.  But things like Links, Buttons,
and other data elements are going to want to contribute HTML.  Further, I
want to tie an even handler to my menu item, and not generate HTML, but
still have the link URL the link would have generated.

How can I approach this?  Is Wicket maybe not the right webapp framework for
me?
