  Oh yes, we agree on that.  I love the fact oXygen is giving the
Swing objects directly available to plugin developers.  Just
maybe it would be worth adding an OxygenAction, which would add
to an AbstractAction some oXygen-related tools (like an error
dialog just saying "Plugin unexpected error" or something like
that).
