Lol, classic.

Doesn't that mean that a class that inherits from JEditorPane can see
the class but not the constructor? And isn't that a little weird? (Not
disputing your JLS expertise, mind you :) )

Does every nonstatic inner class get its outer this prepended to every
constructor? (It's easy enough to detect that the class isn't static,
we already flag a japi error if the staticness is wrong)

What about a doubly-nested inner class, does it get two or just the innermost?
