Swing Text Survey

Though everyone should already know about this, there is a survey out on what features to add to Swing’s text packages for Java 7. While that’s still a fair time away, and a long, long time away before you can count on everyone having it, now is definitely the time to make yourself heard about what features are required if you want to get them in.

Most of what’s on the list is possible to do today but takes a heck of a lot of effort to achieve, as well as a lot of very specialist knowledge. Making it easier would be a pretty big plus.
