Rails for Java Desktop MVC

Question

I'm looking for a desktop application framework similar to Rails/Django but for Java desktop GUI's:

• Good ORM (xml, db, whatever)
• MVC
• Default directory structure
• View Helpers / CRUD support
• Open Source & Mature

Basically, I want to define a large number of models for a desktop application either in Java or schemas and have a simplistic GUI framework generated to begin extending.

Does anything out there do this or come close?

Thanks.

While it isn't quite spot on, have you looked at grails (http://grails.org)?
