I don't want to go into the details of your questions, but did you know 
that Charles Staelin did most of this exercise of translating the 
tutorial into java and there are a few others in the list who have 
worked on that? Maybe his work will answer some of your questions:

Alex Lancaster set up a CVS archive on Sourceforge for it, and I know we 
were trowling around to see who wanted to pitch in.  But I can't say 
I've tracked any of the work and when this came up I had almost no 
interest in Java.
