Looks fine.

Hi All,

Please review a fix for issue where it was seen that several classes rely on 
default constructors as part of their public API.

It's to be noted that "A no-arg public constructor is generated by the compiler for 
a class if it does not declare an explicit constructor. While convenient, this is 
inappropriate for many kinds of formal classes, both because the constructor will have no 
javadoc and because the constructor may be unintended."

For the JDK, classes intended to be used outside of the JDK, public classes in 
exported packages, should not rely on default constructors.

Proposed fix is to create protected constructors to the public abstract classes 
for javax.swing.plaf module (as one part of overalll java.desktop change)
