Problem description
===================
Javadoc for method of class java.beans.PropertyEditorManager
public static String[] getEditorSearchPath()
is implementation-specific. It says that search path is initially set to
{"sun.beans.editors"} which may be not suitable for alternative java
implementations.

Javadoc for this method should contain assertion likes follow:
The default value for this array is implementation-dependent; e.g. Sun implementation initially sets to {"sun.beans.editors"}.

EVALUATION The solution to this is to change the javadoc to be similar to Introspector.getBeanInfoSearchPath() that was driven by 4783335. ###@###.### 2003-11-24
