I haven't seen all this discussion and I haven't tried the following, but this 
is what comes to mind for where to start.

There are two ways to specify the divider location on JSplitPane.  One is the 
absolute pixel position, the other is a floating point percentage.  By tracking 
the floating point percentage as the divider is moved, you can then know what 
percentage to use to position the bar on a resize.  I'd suggest that after 
installing a component listener to see the reshape start and end and making sure 
you understand that, then you should be able to do

// at some class level
double pos;

// When the divider location changes.
pos = jsp.getSize().width()/(double)jsp.getDividerLocation();

// As each resize happens
jsp.setDividerLocation(pos);
