I read this... agreed with the author's point, and proceeded to check
out the bug filed in Sun's bugparade... one year and a half later,
it's still open and marked as a RFE with priority "low". :-(

Java 6, font anti-aliasing, and brain-dead API...

In the words of the blogger:

/////////
"So in the end, your Java UI is yet again stuck looking like crap
because there's no way to tell Java just to render text however the
host desktop environment would, which is all I really want to do.Why
is that so hard? Just do whatever the host desktop environment does
and don't make me worry about LCD striping methods!"
/////////

Any chances of getting this prioritized?. Someone @ Sun whom might
think Java apps looking like crap are not exactly OK?
