Thank you so much.. it works! :-)

Does it work? Nice! I have never tried something like I suggested! :D

I will write down a short howto in the wiki tomorrow. (is the wiki open to everyone?)

Open to everyone and your howto will be very useful, as this kind of questions arises ofter in this mailing list.

But you are right... the code really looks not that nice compared to the
elegance tapestry is providing in other areas. Maybe that's the reason why I was under the impression that there has to be another way.

Tapestry's issue trackes is also open to everyone: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAP5. You can file a JIRA (issue) to ask for a better way to get a block from a page or component without having to @Inject it.

Think about the nice ioc functionality of dropping in new components - we
loose this for that page. But it would make a lot of sense to bundle new
widgets in jar files....

You can do something like that already. Take a look at http://tapestry.apache.org/tapestry5/guide/beaneditform.html: this page shows how to add functionality to BeanEditForm (and Grid, BeanDisplay and BeanEditor too) providing blocks. In a page, you can inject another page (let's call it X) and then render X's components using Delegate. Adding new pages/components/mixins from a JAR is easy too: see http://tapestry.apache.org/tapestry5/tapestry-ioc/autoload.html and the ComponentClassResolver Tapestry service. Adding this method to a Tapestry-IoC module, I can add a component library to my application:

public static void contributeComponentClassResolver(
                Configuration<LibraryMapping> configuration,
                TapestryCrudModuleService tapestryCrudModuleService) {

        configuration.add(new LibraryMapping(
                        Constants.TAPESTRY_CRUD_LIBRARY_PREFIX,
                        "br.com.arsmachina.tapestrycrud")); // my library root 
package

}
