Thanks for your responses, my guess is that I should build one component that will render the dynamic part of the pages (it has the same appearance in all of them), ant this component will receive a parameter to specify the name of the SQL sentence that will feed it. This way, I can use the same class for all pages -or even no class at all, only .page files and the class for the component-. The rest of the details of the page (labels and titles, mostly) can be hardcoded as they're not dynamic.
I noticed that in Tapestry in Action, Howard uses inheritance very often, ie the ToDo examples. While it sounds like a desirable approach, I still can't force my mind to think in terms of page hierarchies. That's the reason why I asked this question...
