Show HN: Sierra, a DSL for building Java Swing applications
Added an example demonstrating how to add an action listener to a button:

I'm not sure it's exactly what you were looking for, but hopefully it is similar enough.
Agreed. I said as much in my response to this issue that was opened the other day:
Great question. You can do this with a cell consumer (i.e. the with() method). See OrientationTest for an example (e.g. leftToRightButton, rightToLeftButton):

This looks really cool. Applying a thin layer over parts of the standard library is a very good idea IMO. Reduces the dependency tree but a lot.
One question (my Swing knowledge is at least 15 years old!): what's the simplest way to handle events using this? Eg taking the FormTest [1] example, how might one simply bind a model to the UI elements?

What are some alternatives?
