This week I'm doing a research project for a client. The main purpose of the project is to find out which Java-based web framework works best with Dojo and Comet. Here's the key requirement from the client:

Maybe its just me but I don't get it. Any java web framework can support any of these javascript libraries.

You are correct in the sense that the web frameworks spit out HTML and you can include the JavaScript libraries and decorate appropriately. However, my client was hoping that the web frameworks themselves had APIs to simplify the writing of the JavaScript.

Wicket is well documented now - "Wicket in Action" has just been published by Manning publications co.
The book is well-written & illustrated and includes numerous easy-to-understand examples.
Dojo is mentioned in passing on pages: 21, 242, and 258. However, no code nor even details of how to use Dojo from a Wicket application is offered. Comet is not even mentioned in the index. A couple Scriptaculous based component listings are given but that is it for Ajax.
The book mentioned that you might find some useful support components for the popular Ajax component libraries at http://wicketstuff.org/ so you might try that repository out. If you have SVN on your computer you can do a checkout right from their Subversion repository.
