The one thing that's missing is a Preferences menu that allows you to
select a L&F from all the installed ones. Maybe later..
Oh, and for the life of me I absolutely cannot resize the tree view width
programmatically; setMinimumSize() in EditorView() works fine but
setSize() simply does not, no matter where I put it. Any hints?
These are my first 'real' steps with Swing and I just couldn't believe
when I first saw JComponent's source, what a terrible mess. :(

How so? Not using some of the new features in 1.4+ would mean unnecessary
work for a lot of things, not to mention no JDBC3 support, Swing
performance etc. It's unfortunate but we have little choice, especially
for the GUI.

There's a known & pretty popular bug with ATI graphic cards/drivers and
DirectDraw enabled (or something like that), which would consistently
crash the machine. That might be your problem?
