Interesting idea. I like swing too.
I was thinking how this idea relates to netscapes idea of making an
integrated communicator/linux platform to compete with the windows/IE
integration. If I had the time I might also be interested in coding some
utilities, but it's not to be ;-<
I wonder if netscape has started any java utilities along this line? I
expect the browser is the window manager and filemanager, but everthing
else could be java.
