Nice!
You can then implement window behavior as needed in the handler
methods. If you need to get the state of other controls in a
handler, that's certainly possible. You could do something like
CrowdedWindow(b.Window).EditField1.Text. Casting is generally a
code smell, but since CrowdedWindowEventHandler is auxiliary to
CrowdedWindow, it's a reasonable thing to do in this case.
I guess this is about minimizing nastiness, not eliminating it.
Why is this so hard to do beautifully?
You're thinking like a mathematician, not an engineer :)
Actually, this is a fairly elegant solution. Once you implement it
or some other design, perhaps you'll be able to refactor it to
something better. While designs may be pretty, designing is usually
not.
