I don't know about this issue. Which Java version and which platform?
I have seen that there are lots of problems with Swing on Mac OS X.
But this is not our fault.

Hmm, I need to test this, but I'm sure that we don't use threads
for moving channel entries in the tree.

Yes. This should be complete everywhere. I agree.
I will take a look where we forgot the default handlers.
We are always trying to use the full features, if not,
it has been forgotten.

It should be possible to drop an URL into text boxes.
I think this feature exists since jdk-1.4. There is
no need to implement special handlers for this,
because it's done automatically.
