I don't want to sound like a databinder basher, but I want to make this
solution very *non-invasive*.  I don't want to have to implement specific
interfaces or use specific components for this to work.

My solution works with "standard" wicket components and property models.  No
need to change your whole application just to get UI validation.

I've looked at databinder in the past, and although it may be useful, I
think it's a bit heavyweight for what I'm trying to achieve.

In my opinion, database access should be abstracted away from the UI layer
altogether, which leaves the goals of databinder questionable.  Does anyone
remember the horror of the JSP tags that directly connected to datbases??
Spring integration is a much more desirable location for database access,
and there  is already excellent spring integration with wicket.

My goal is simply to integrate hibernate into wicket for "relevant" UI
features.  Validation is an excellent example where wicket should simply
re-use the same backend validation and display good user feedback instead of
waiting for the hibernate validation fire and throwing a big fat stacktrace.
