The offered constructs seem awfully familiar. The AJAX integration
seems tighter though.

This is who I would do it in Seaside:

Handling User Actions

renderLinkOn: html
	html anchor
		callback: [ self doSomething ];
		with: 'Some Link'

User Actions And Continuations

renderLinkOn: html
	html anchor
		callback: [
			(self call: MyLoginComponent new)
				ifTrue: [ self showProtectedContent ]
				ifFalse: [ self showError ] ];
		with: 'Some Link'

#chooseFrom:, #confirm:, #inform: for do-choice, do-confirmation and
do-information

UI State Management And Widgets

Magritte

Sequential Control Flow

go
	(self agreement1
		and: [ self agreement2 ]
		and: [ self agreement3 ])
			ifTrue: [ self showProtectedContent ]
			ifFalse: [ self showError ]
