Yes, this explains it but I just wonder about two cases.

javax.swing.event.RowSorterEvent. You've added a SUID and that looks 
right but I see that all the other events in this package have the 
disclaimer and so I wonder if maybe this class should have a disclaimer 
and @SW.

The other one is javax.swing.plaf.metal.MetalComboBoxIcon as most of the 
other types in this package have the disclaimer + @SW.
