Hi, just my two cents: In general coupling bean editor (and friends) tightly to bootstrap is strange even I am aware its the de facto standard. Furthermore I can not believe it will ever produce a layout which makes all of us happy. Is it not possible to add a additional, optional parameter to support "row building" or "field grouping" (eg List of List of field names forming rows/groups) and retrieve/provide css for each field and row/group by callbacks? Means: by default Tapestry does not care about rows/groups and may solely set col-xyz-whatever on each field's class to provide a default responsive layout. Nevertheless by a callback solution its now possible to easily override "that default css" for a group/row or even individual field. Due to the fact everything is optional it won't break old code, too. I can not see how a mixin is able to easily modify css across elements without any structural hint (rows/groups), but correct me if I am wrong.
