Basically, what I did is created Actions and hooked component listeners to delegate back to a mediator class. Anything that I wanted to 'FindComponent' on I just created had it implement a Mediatable interface. Then added it to a Map collection to easily register it with the applications Mediator object. The mediator class is where I keep all of my business logic. Happy to send you examples if your interested in learning more. You can find the OpenSource project here: https://tframe.dev.java.net/ JSR 296 will address a lot of this in Java 7 when it ships.
