In an Ajax request, returning a JSONObject is completely appropriate return value from a component event that expects a page navigation result. This will mix-and-match well with AjaxResponseRenderer (under 5.3 and 5.4); that is, you can return a JSONObject and Tapestry will add to it the keys for zone updates and page initializations related to rendering Blocks and Zones.
Under 5.4, it's a bit neater, with the partial page render response values buried down a level under a "_tapestry" key.
