I agree. Before the 10.2 release I did some work to eliminate use of Swing & AWT classes in org/jmol/viewer. There are still some references within org/jmol/g3d, but I have given some thought to the mechanism for abstracting the window package into an interface that will have Swing and SWT implementations. > So I feel that this intermediate layer must stay in it's place... I agree that there will be an abstraction for the host windowing package, and that the popup mechanism will be part of that interface.
