Spreading the rumour - GroupLayout in Mustang

Apparently Romain Guy wrote this about the Mustang Roadmap:

We might even be able to merge GroupLayout (used by Matisse) in the JDK, who knows :)

This should prove interesting. With GroupLayout, the layout that really changes the face of developing GUI on Java, inside the JDK, it could open up interesting results. First, Matisse-created forms won't need a .jar dependency. This would ease up Web Started Matisse forms, and Matisse forms in Applets - As long as the receiving side has Java Mustang, of course. Imagine IntelliJ IDEA with Matisse-like GUI editor. This could have been done without GroupLayout coming out in JDK 1.6 as GroupLayout is under the LGPL'd project swing-layout, but with that layout in the JDK itself it makes it even more reasonable to happen. I've said it before, there is no competition for Matisse in my opinion. But who knows? Maybe Jetbrains would add GUI refactoring..
