There haven't been many users expressing their ideas about this. For
those that have, it's about a 50% split. As I think this is a very
useful feature, I'd like to find a place to implement it. Should I
put it into a branch, or a separate 3rd party add-on project hosted
outside Apache?

Hi Kent.
It's an intriguing idea, so I look forward to being able to compare it
to Howard's ideas, even as a 3rd-party add-on. I'm sure others do too.
For me the draw-cards are definitely compile-time validation & completion!
Cheers,
Nick.

I agree, or it could be done as a branch.
I'm not sure how this could be done as an add-on.
The existing components would need to change, to provide a kind of
"configurator" object to invoke setFoo() and bindBar() on.

Even if i find my way find with all-binding, why host it outside
apache? Couldn't it be a subproject for Tapestry itself?
