We should also have a clean up that removes unnecessary 'final' modifiers (reverse of bug bug 123946). Removing 'final' cleans up code much more than adding it everywhere...

Makes the Ui a bit complicated. I wouldn't mind skipping this one.

Do we have to open a new chapter of the braces story? Abundant final modifiers for locals and parameters are unnecessary and verbose. We should not offer tools to introduce useless code and on the other hand not have the remedy to cure the disease.

This cleanup should allow to remove all unnecessary modifiers that are mentioned in bug 71627.
