It applies to any Swing component that accepts a caret as far as I can tell, and is broader than A11Y, so I worry about unexpected consequences. What is the situation today for a JTextField - and other such components ? Why was the bug report mentioning only JTextArea ? What happens for AWT heavyweights ? Does Windows display a caret even if they aren't editable ? Why is a non-editable Text Area really any different than a JLabel ?? Surely that can't get focus ? I guess I am surprised that that a non-editable component should have focus at all .. so what other components accept focus even if they aren't "active" ? ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/11408
