I use a SizedPanel extends JPanel for null Layout and it works for all my 
needs. But you have to compute sizing yourself. I use it that way for both 
BoundingBox’es and GUI components. I use it in Swing and Awt. I use a mix of 
both or it doesn’t work correctly. It all works properly. There used to be some 
issues with doLayout, but after not calling the doLayout method and calling 
tec_layout, that code shadowing problem went away, similar with what goes on 
with spring framework transitive dependencies, but that’s another story.
