Ivan,

Looks like Google has beaten us to the punch by answering this
question with code:

http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/

This is an AJAX GUI toolkit for Java.  They haven't tried to integrate
it with Swing, but the source code is suggestive.  Here's "hello, world":

public class Hello implements EntryPoint {

  public void onModuleLoad() {
    Button b = new Button("Click me", new ClickListener() {
      public void onClick(Widget sender) {
        Window.alert("Hello, AJAX");
      }
    });

    RootPanel.get().add(b);
  }
}
