Folks,
You may or may not know of one of my projects - Jesktop. It is a
desktop OS like layer for Java. A current impl sits on top of Avalon (a
Jakarta project). I had previously forked Batik and made it installable
into Jesktop. In order to do this last year I have to decouple use of
JFrame and make things more beanlike. Essentially if the components of
Batik were just JPanels etc, they could be placed in a number of
containers. You folks would need JFrame as a container, I would need
JFrimble, but there could be a third type - JApplet that might want to
contain Batik.
What I am proposing is a set of the changes to Batik that make it more
beanlike so that it is reusable in multiple visual environments. I
don't intend to code in Jesktop concepts or depend on Jesktop APIs, I'm
just proposing a couple of steps of modularisation while not diminishing
its ability to launch from the command line as at present.
These are the classes that refer to JFrame:
apps.slideshow.Main
apps.svgbrowser.AboutDialog
apps.svgbrowser.JSVGViewerFrame
util.gui.CSSMediaPanel
util.gui.DOMViewer
util.gui.LanguageDialog
util.gui.MemoryMonitor
util.gui.URIChooser
util.gui.UserStyleDialog
If you are willing I could start submitting patches to this list....

Incidentally I am an Apache person, most active in jakarta-avalon but
also in jakarta-commons.
