Hi Damien,

I'm not sure I'm entirely following you, but: normally you would have
a WA-B class that would display a single B, by iterating over that B's
instances of A and displaying a WA-A for each of them.  One pattern I
often use for this is to have a lazily initialized dictionary in the
WA-B instance that maps A instances to corresponding WA-A instances.

HTH,
Avi
