After some chatting in the IRC channel (everyone should check that out)
and some reading, it seems that a mixin was the way to go. Now I've
successfully implemented my text monitor as a mixin and am working on
ways to make it quickly usable but also customizable. Does anyone know
if its possible to create modules of mixins as drop-in jar files, as can
be done with component libraries?
thanks!

Hello,
I'm working on a component that can be used to accompany text
components (text and textarea). My component will provide a
client-side count of characters in the box (using JS), as well as
enforce limits on the size. I know most of what I need to do, but I
want to be able 'attach' my component to another component in a
similar way that the label component is attached. Specifically, if the
id provided in the label's for parameter doesn't exist, an exception
is thrown. I'd like to be able to do this but I dont know how its
done. The label component doesnt really help because it receives the
component to be labeled as a Field type, which I assume is
handled/verified by the framework. Well, this won't work for me
because (unfortunately) the Field interface doesn't provide a way to
deduce the client side id. Any suggestions?
sincerely,
chris
