> Currently, there's a fairly simple mapping from Java property type to Tapestry property type ... the latter being a string used to select appropriate components to display the value of a property or edit the value of a property.
> However, type is not always enough.  For example, String and Number both map to "text", but a String could also be a long text field (use a <textarea>) or perhaps a rich text field (we will eventually add a rich text editor to Tapestry).  Likewise, Date maps to "date" but that doesn't allow for time input, just the date portion.
> How about:
> public class MyBean {
>   private String _password;
>   private String _note;
>   public String getPassword() { return _password; }
>   @PropertyType("password")
>   public void setPassword(String password) { _password = password; }
>   public String getNote() { return _note; }
>   @PropertyType("longtext")
>   public void setNote(String note) { _note = note);
> }
