Me too.   And I'd love to  see Wicket using the  successful combo,
but this is not (yet) the case of others[1].

+1.  We  need to  have both  the artifacts  deployed to  a central
repository (for the Maven or  Ivy users that already know Wicket),
and the all-in-one  package for the beginner  to become acquainted
with Wicket.
