Re: Self type

this is not going to work for wicket because this system of
self-typing does not support anonymous classes

eg given:

Component<S extends Component<S>>
MarkupContainer<S extends MarkupContainer<S>> extends Component<S>
WebMarkupContainer<S extends WebMarkupContainer<S>> extends MarkupContainer<S>

you can no longer create an anonymous subclass of WebMarkupContainer or

WebMarkupContainer<?> w=new WebMarkupContainer<WHAT_GOES_HERE>("w") {  }

this style of coding is very common and is essential to wicket.
