Desktop Java Features in Mustang

Features for Java 6.0, next release named: Mustang. Some of them sound quite interesting, like:

- True Double Buffering (This will provide two immediate advantages: exposing a Java application [moving an application to the front that was previously obscured] will be nearly instantaneous, and an application that hangs the event dispatch thread can still have its contents restored during an expose event. )
- Native Windows and GTK Look and Feel rendering (Use Microsoft's API for rendering portions of components)
- Full support for Firefox
