Cool! I got a Frame to show, but neither events nor painting works...

Yes! However, I can't promise how quick I will be able to follow your
progress. Still, here is my personal immodest ordered wishlist :-)
libjava-gtk-configury
 Toolkit
 Frame (Window, Container, Component)
 Events and EventListener
 Panel with Flow- Grid- Border- GridBag-Layout
 Button, Label 
 Canvas (basically paint(), update(), possibly getGraphics() - 
 this would allow me to test most of my custom components).
 TextComponent, TextField, TextArea
 Choice
 Dialog, FileDialog
 Checkbox
 List
 Scrollbar
