Javadoc for java.beans.beancontext.BeanContextSupport.setLocale() method
with reference type arguments does not describe expected reaction when
null is passed in.

As "Requirements for Writing Java API Specifications" says:
 (http://java.sun.com/j2se/javadoc/writingapispecs/index.html#method)

Method Specification
    This section applies to Java methods and constructors. Each method and
    constructor specification must include:
    .....
4.Null Argument Values - For each reference type argument, specify the behavior
  when null is passed in.See two examples. NOTE: If possible, document the general
  null argument behavior at the package or class level, such as causing a
  java.lang.NullPointerException to be thrown. Deviations from this behavior can
  then be documented at the method level.

Due to lack of documentation several
java.beans.beancontext.BeanContextSupport tests assume, that
setLocale(null) would result in setting locale to Locale.getDefault().

Affected testcases are:
api/java_beans/beancontext/BeanContextSupport/index.html#Fields[BeanContextSupp$
api/java_beans/beancontext/BeanContextSupport/index.html#Simple[BeanContextSupp$
