I would agree with this comment. I've just read Geoff's huge email re 
"Spindle, the *very* future" (well, ok, I summarised it a bit there :-).

I was actually just thinking that a middle ground might be to have a field 
mapper in Spindle, that allows you to join the components specified in the 
.page/.jwc to the underlying object. Nothing fancy - this one is pure 'make 
it easier' support for the user.  

I can imagine something like the Palette component, with the component id's on 
the left and available bean properties on the right. Click .... click ... 
click, done. Sure, more editing would be required to setup additional 
validation properties and the like, but at least this may go some way to 
assisting new people?

(of course, the new tutorial will as well... when I complete it :-)
