        In java.beans.Introspector, the instantiate method tries
        to lookup the bean info on a number of different class
        loaders. This assumes that the classloader that has loaded
        the bean-info is either:
          1) The same that loaded the bean, or
          2) The class loader.

        This is typically not true for Swing components, when applications
        are launched with Java Web Start. This makes it impossible to launch
        Beans Builder tool using Java Web Start. The Plug-In might have
        the same problem.

        BTW: This is a general problem in all of the JRE code. All uses of forName
        should be inspected.

        This should be fixed in Lady Bird.
