Menu component - communicating with root component

Hi,

Sorry if these questions seem very simple -- but I wanted to check
that my overall architecture was ok.

I have an application that has a RootComponent and several sub
components that can be selected by actions in the MenuComponent.

RootComponent
    MenuComponent
    Body1Component
    Body2Component
    .. etc ...

The menu component in the anchor callbacks sends #triggerEvent: to
notify the Root of the menu selection.
The Root then renders the selected Body component.

Is this a reasonable Seaside-way of structuring the application.    I
know that Pier has the sidebar menus ... but Pier is difficult for me
to follow due to the highly abstracted nature of the application.


Thanks
