Hallo Tor,

one more time about JTreeTable from the Swing connection
(http://java.sun.com/products/jfc/tsc/articles/treetable2/index.html)

I'm tired of bugs and limitations in TreeTableView and I want to
rewrite the core module to use JTreeTable. It would be a great
improvement.

Common problems with TreeTableView:
-----------------------------------
29724 [email protected]@netbeans.orgSTARcurreCategory nodes 
reexpand when they feel like it
27670 
[email protected]@netbeans.orgNEWcurreEditing 
tasks does not cause re-evaluation of filter
Rearranging of the first column is impossible
One-click-boolean-editor is impossible (2 Clicks are necessary)
Hiding first column is impossible
PropertyEditors cannot draw the value in a whole cell (a border prevents it)
Impossible to compose a complicated renderer from different UI elements
There is no focus indication (blue box) on the name column so it looks 
like focus is in lala land. #31456
No cells are editable by the keyboard. I would expect being able to 
press the space bar on a cell to be able to edit it like i can in the 
property sheet. #31456
No control over the popup menu over a free space in the view
Slow with more than 1000 rows.
Same property editor is used for the table cells and in the properties view
Errors showing selected cells
missing getProperties() method
.....
