Re: [platform-swt-dev] Re: Subclassing Shell

No condescension taken.  It is a good point.  I come from an Objective-C
background, where the boundaries are sliced somewhat differently anyway, so
I occasionally have to lookup the semantics.  I presume, however, that they
are not made protected in order to facilitate package access. :)  I'm
looking for that distinction.

regards,
Christian.
