We provide libs for Swing and JavaFX. For most of the issues bug reports 
have been filed. But it's not only about known bugs we also have to 
handle unknown bugs - the release cycles until things get fixed are way 
too long while customers need solutions. So will it be possible to fork 
specific JDK modules and deploy such modified modules to users in a 
simple manner - webstart included?
