> The main purpose of this feature request is to let components expose state so 
> that it gets carried with client. Such component can implement an interface 
> like:
> public interface UrlContributor {
>   Map<String,String> getState();
>   void setState(Map<String, String> m);
> }
> Wicket would handle the scoping e.g. by prefixing the key/ value pairs with 
> something that ids the components.
> The use case is that you get bookmarkable pages that can be statefull *on a 
> component level* (rather than page level with PageParameters). For example:
> class PageableFoo extends SomeComponent implements UrlContributor {
>   private int currentPage = 0;
>   ...
>   public ValueMap<String,String> getState() {
>     return new ValueMap("page=" + currentPage);
>   }
>   void setState(ValueMap<String, String> m) {
>     currentPage = m.getInt("page", 0);
>   }
> }
> Then, "somepath:page=n" would be carried in every URL that points back to the 
> page. This combined with the stateless pages/ components functionality and 
> issue WICKET-30 gives users of Wicket almost limitless ability of tweaking 
> their applications for bookmarkability and server side memory usage.
> To summarize: the goal of this proposal is to bring bookmarkability of state 
> like we have with bookmarkable pages with page parameters to the component 
> level.
