[8u40] Request for approval: 8049065: [JLightweightFrame] Support DnD for SwingNode

[Anthony Petrov]

Hello,

JavaFX team requests an approval to back-port the following fix from JDK 
9 to JDK 8u40:

8049065: [JLightweightFrame] Support DnD for SwingNode
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8049065
http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk9/client/jdk/rev/750ef1bf8b2c
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~anthony/9-5.2/

Approvals:
Anton Tarasov: commented in JIRA: 
https://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-37149
Petr Pchelko:

The JDK 9 patch applies cleanly (with a few offset chunks which the 
patch utility handles automatically). The resulting 8u-dev build has 
been tested. The fix delegates certain DnD-related operations to the 
JavaFX SwingNode component only when embedding Swing content into a 
JavaFX application. Regular Swing/AWT applications should not be 
affected by the changes. Therefore, this is considered a low risk fix.
