I am afraid that this change will instantly break >80% of all deployed applications. Same for setSize()/resize().

I think that their code should be merged into the preferred setVisible(boolean) method. The deprecated show(), hide(), and show(boolean) would call setVisible(boolean) with the corresponding value. They won't be deprecated for removal. >From what I can tell, a migration can be done pretty easily. The headache I >imagine can result is with mixing inheritances/overrides. Thoughts? -SWinxy
