Thanks. cljque looks interesting and might provide a nice abstraction for swing events.
I made a little example of hooking a textbox to a ref: https://github.com/daveray/seesaw/blob/master/src/seesaw/examples/text_ref.clj Generalizing it might be tricky since data models (the stuff behind the ref) and user interactions (when should the ref be updated) vary so much. It would be easy enough, though, to have a helper function that wires together a widget and ref for simple cases.
