Some RAD tools would be awesome. I don't think this is Maven's space though but definitely within the ROO and Grails space. SceneBuilder is the 'RAD' tool of the JFX platform but it is basically an FXML WYSIWYG editor. The JavaFX version of Grails is called Griffon. -- http://griffon-framework.org/ It is substantially derived from Grails (i.e. the first 0.0 release had large poritons cut and pasted, I would know).
