/**
* Demonstrates how to build panels that honor or ignore the current
* component orientation: left-to-right vs. right-to-left.<p>
*
* This example uses a utility class that may be moved to the extras or
* to the Forms core in a future version. The tricky part is the abstract
* definition of column specifications and cell constraints.<p>
*
* The example below utilizes the <code>OrientationUtils</code> to flip
* column specification defaul alignments and to reverse the order of
* column specifications. Cell constraints need to be adjusted too; this
* example avoids the problem by using a builder that creates <em>all</em>
* cell constraints.<p>
*
* You can find information about the latest additions regarding the
* Forms support for different component orientations in the comments for
* <a href="http://forms.dev.java.net/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=2">issue #2</a>.
