OK.

(Minor Style)
In HtmlDocletWriter, the vertical separator could be a constant in 
Contents.   Or (related discussion) would it be better to declare 
Content constants nearer their point of use?

The new class SystemPropertiesWriter.java doesn't have the scary warning 
in the top comment. We should either be consistent or have a discussion 
about whether we still need the scary comments.
