<AWT Dev> [9] Review request for 8159374 : Taskbar.setIconBadge() spec omits mention of exception for ICON_BADGE_TEXT feature

[Alexander Zvegintsev]

It is possible, it can be checked on the peer level only partially(as 
long as we have API for icon badge with a String as a parameter only).
If this is not the acceptable solution, we might consider to add 
setIconBadge(long badge) method.

Thanks,
