---------------------------------------
    Fix Version/s: 12.0
       Resolution: Won't Fix

I guess I scared the reporter enough... Sorry for that, I hope you will not 
give up on NetBeans, Markus.

> Currently it is hard to customize Node, Explorer and PropertySheet behavior, 
> because there are too many private instead of protected methods, package 
> private and final classes in the API.
> Some examples I have stumbled on include
>  * private doSetNodes method in PropertySheet (no way to override the use of 
> ProxyNodes)
>  * final and package private ProxyNode class
>  * package private constructor in ProxyNode
>  * package private getOriginalNodes method in ProxyNode
>  * package private and final {color:#000000}ProxyProperty{color} class in 
> ProxyNode
>  * final Sheet class and its inner class Sheet.Set
>  * most private methods in Sheet and Sheet.Set should be protected instead
>  * PropertySupport.Reflection class should have getters for read and write 
> methods
> I wonder, what is the rationale for so strict and static API design? I would 
> assume the performance gains from these limitations are meager. Opening these 
> classes for sub-classing and modifications would result in much more flexible 
> system with much less code duplication.
