We need something like an include file in C to define how all of our GUI
components look - to make sure all fonts come from a selected set; all
controls are a certain height, etc.

Does anyone have any experience with something like this ?

Also, we'd like to be able to implement this using JBuilder Foundation ...

You can use Java interfaces like C header files. Define all of your
constants in one, and then every class that implements that interface
will have access to those constants as if they were static constants
in the class itself,  which means you don't have to qualify them with
the interface's name.
