/**
* Demonstrates how to efficiently build a panel with a leading
* indent column using the DefaultFormBuilder.<p>
*
* The default FocusTraversalPolicy will lead to a poor focus traversal,
* where non-editable fields are included in the focus cycle.
* Anyway, this tutorial is about layout, not focus, and so I favor
* a lean example over a fully functional.
