Sorry about the delay, but I was a bit busy with other stuff. The 
changes to src/share/classes/javax/swing/Popup.java are clean but the 
new test files will need to be modified to include the updated copyright 
headers. Is it still OK to backport with the additional modifications? 
Also, given that mlapshin is responsible for the actual code changes, 
what is the best way to credit him for this patch?

Thanks,
Omair
