It is de-incremented in JComponent's writeObject or a class that implements it the same way, like JButton, JScrollPane etc..
> With JTableHeader it does not deincrement the counter. The uninstall mechanism will not uninstall a UI if the counter is not 0 on the first pass..It is not possible to call JComponent.setWriteObjectCounter in JTableHeader as it is not in the same package so the fix is to remove the writeObject implementation and rely on JComponent writeObject implementation to make sure uninstallation of UI happens and also NotSerializableException does not happen for Synth
