<Swing Dev> [9] Review Request for 6866751: J2SE_Swing_Reg: the caret disappears when moving to the end of the line.

[Sergey Bylokhov]

Hi, Semyon.
It seems that "Caret.width" is platform specific property, right? (looks 
like it is initialized on windows only). What happens if the user will 
set the size/aspect of the caret via "putClientProperty" after the fix? 
It seems that correct width of the caret can be obtained via 
DefaultCaret.getCaretWidth (It takes into account both  properties: 
aspectRatio/caretWidth). Probably we can push implementation of this 
method to the Caret class itself(in jdk9) or at least share the code 
somehow? Note that we can initialize caretWidth for each L&F by default 
to 1(or to Caret.width) if this value is correct, so the user will be 
able take current value which is used by Swing.
