I've written an extended dynabean class that extends (actually, wraps) BasicDynaBean to add toString and equals. The toString method uses commons.lang.ToStringBuilder to build the toString, and commons.lang.EqualsBuilder to perform the equals comparison. I know it needs hashCode, I just haven't taken the time to add it yet.
Is there any interest in having this class donated to commons-beanutils?
