>=20

In my opinion, it should be per widget (not global), and on by default.=20
If you compare it again with the Swing behaviour, defaults give you a=20
sensibly-looking widget. For lists and tables, my point of view is that=20
line=3D"true" makes most sense.

However, I am of split mind with the current way the tree lead-lines=20
look. IMHO, they should be dotted - otherwise they are too heavy and too=20
distracting; and they should be completed, i.e. they now look very=20
strange (forgive my ASCII art below):

- Item
    |_ Item
        |_ Item
    |_ Item
|_ Item

But they should look like this:

- Item
|  |_ Item
|  |   |_ Item
|  |_ Item
|_ Item



--=20
