Cool, Christian and I briefly spoke on this topic when he was doing the wiki stuff. I think we had approximately similar requirements. 
Can you point me at the code you did?

So its pretty simple stuff right now. We're creating a HtmlPanelGrid then for each form element (textbox, textarea etc) we want to render we create a UIDecorate

 UIDecorate component = (UIDecorate) getApplication().createComponent(UIDecorate.COMPONENT_TYPE);
  | component.setId(getUniqueId());

then add all the components relevant to that element as children of the UIDecorate

  | decorator.getChildren().add(getUnescapedOutputText("<br/>"));
  | decorator.getChildren().add(getTextAreaInputWidget());
  | etc

Then add the decorator back into the grid

panelGrid.getChildren().add(decorator);

Finally we outject the panelGrid and display it in a facelets page.

<h:panelGrid binding="#{dynamicPanelGridTest}" />

Hope this helps
Cheers
