I'm currently investigating ways of integrating Groovy into an application
UI.

I was initially thinking of using Groovy simply as an embedded script engine
allowing a user to customise menu actions.

Now I am wondering how feasible it would be to use Groovy and SwingBuilder
to wire together the whole application at the surface level instead.

This could be by

a) At start time, reading in a number of scripts to configure the UI.
b) Dynamically loading in a script which alters which UI 'views' are loaded
and how they are arranged.

Has anyone tried putting together a large UI using Groovy and SwingBuilder?
I'm thinking that this should have adequate performance because I'm just
wiring up components which do most of the work (out of the script execution
itself).

I can see the potential of building a UI framework with much of the
functionality of a 'Portlet' style web app, but instead building a client
application.
