The fix still looks fine to me.

>>> I encountered the case of unset handlerContext while testing SwingSet3 Web Start app.  It is triggered by selecting SwingSet3->About from the global menu bar. Since SwingSet3 doesn't use eAWT, it doesn't register any handlers, so selecting "About" menu item just shows standard Cocoa About dialog. In the code, it is accomplished by the following snippet from   _AppEventDispatcher.dispatch:
>>>
>>>              if (localHandler == null) {
>>>                 performDefaultAction(event);

>>>                  performUsing(localHandler, event);
>>>              }
>>>
>>> _AppEventDispatcher.performDefaultAction() is an abstract method, implemented in _AboutDispacther (shows native about dialog ) and _QuitDispatcher (quits the app). So, in order to display default About dialog we have to do the dispatching, even though handlerContext hasn't been set.
