Ok, I'll update it.

It is used in 3 places:
  - Indirectly in Canvas and Panel where our headless toolkits creates 
NullComponentPeer instead of the native peer. So the question is this is 
implementation detail of our headless toolkit or all such toolkits 
should use the same things.
  - In Component class I can reuse NullComponentPeer, but it is unclear 
how we survive this later when external tollkit is in use.

If nobody objects then I suggest for now to use this new error as an 
assertion to find possible usage of these methods, instead of silent 
usage of some empty stub, and fail sometime later with unclear reason.
