BTW there were also a few minor grammar issues in javadoc
eg

   41  * the option named "-singleton" must be specified on jpackager command line.

"the jpackager"


   84      * Registers {@code SingleInstanceListener} for current process.
and
   96      * Registers {@code SingleInstanceListener} for current process.

and
  122      * Unregisters {@code SingleInstanceListener} for current process.
  123      * If the {@code SingleInstanceListener} object is not registered, or
  124      * {@code slistener} is {@code null}, then the unregistration is skipped.


"the current process"

There may be more like that.

and as I mentioned offline, I think the correct word is "deregister" not 
"unregister"
both in comments and method names.
