T5: Mixins - anybody done anything interesting with them?

[Nick Westgate <ni...@key-planning.co.jp>]

Mixins are an intriguing feature and I'm pondering their uses.
Discussion on the list so far suggests the component to be mixed
with needs to be mixin friendly - e.g. getters/setters for privates.

The only behaviour I disagree with is the invocation ordering.
Mixins before component is fine as it's a kind of specialization,
but then parents before children goes against that.

And so far the only concrete thing I've tried is to short-circuit
DiscardBody in AbstractField, which doesn't work yet unfortunately:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAPESTRY-1662

Cheers,
Nick.
