i've taken a look and these look pretty cool and i'd be interested in adding them to beanutils. there are a few issues that should be discussed before i'd be willing to make this happen:
1. the apache license has not been included at the top of each file. since this assigns copyright to the ASF it's taken as a sufficient indication that you are willing to donate the code. please either resubmit with the ASF license at the top of each source file or confirm to the list that you want to donate this code.
2, would you be willing to create and donate some unit tests for these class? (all new code should have unit tests and if you're not willing to create them that means a committer must which is extra work and may lead to the item sinking down the list of priorities...)
3. packaging. as submitted, these classes will be placed in the root beanutils package. if there are going to be a lot of other stuff along similar lines, maybe it'd be better to create a new package. comments anyone?

I recently implemented a Closure, Transformer, and Predicate which make use of PropertyUtils to provide some useful functionality when dealing with Collections of beans. I wanted to offer them up as a candidate for the BeanUtils package and/or get some feedback from the list.
--> BeanPropertyValueChangeClosure is an implementation of Closure</code> that updates a specified property on the object provided with a specified value.
--> BeanPropertyValueEqualsPredicate is an implementation of Predicate that evaluates a property value on the object provided against a specified value and returns true if equal; false otherwise.
--> BeanToPropertyValueTransformer is an implementation of Transformer that transforms the object provided by returning the value of a specified property of the object.
Thanks,
