javax.swing.Box should extend JComponent, not java.awt.Container.
After all, it is a swing component, is it not?
Because it does not extend JComponent, it does not have all
the features one expects with a swing component.
This should not be too hard to fix; since JComponent extends
container anyway, it should not break backwards compatability.
