Most serious real-world applications use typeover mode to some extent. The
TextField class doesn't provide this functionality. Lack of it means that people
will implement it themselves in possibly incosistent ways. This is unacceptable.
If Java is going to move beyond the "cool demos" reputation and attract serious
development efforts, this kind of functionality must be provided.
