The JBS bug is: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8089514
The current status is still as Jonathan described it. This would be a
very good enhancement to have, but it will require a fair bit of work to
drive consensus on the best way to define and implement this, and then
to finish it.

It was never merged. It exists somewhere in JBS as a patch file or webrev
link. The API was decent (IMHO), but not completely implemented (and nor
did everyone agree with my opinion). It worked for simple cases (i.e.
ListCell, TreeCell, TableCell, and TreeTableCell), but probably needed more
fleshing out to work appropriately in the TableRow and TreeTableRow cases.

There is a chance that I may need to start a complete rewrite of a Swing
client, of course I'm considering JavaFX, but only if I can do efficient
data entry in tables. This means: enter commits value and moves focus to
another (not necessarily the next) cell. AFAIK one of the requirements is
the TableView & CellEditor patch that Jonathan Giles discussed while he was
still working at Oracle. I was wondering if that was ever implemented. And
if not, why not; it seemed like a doable and highly requested patch.
