EVALUATION It's possible to move the EventQueueItem class to sun.awt package. As it's still required in the java.awt package we need to make it public as well as its members. Moreover, the field named "id" does have a duplicating role for this class because the id value could be asked on the "event" (field) itself.

EVALUATION Seem the field named "id" from EventQueue is some kind of cached value as it is obtained from the event field. So it might be reasonable to get rid of it. This is a package-private API.
