      The JTextComponent implementation currently creates break
      iterators on the fly, and always uses a natural language break iterator
      obtained from BreakIterator.get*Instance methods. This makes it hard to
      use JTextComponent to implement a program editor, where word breaks
      should correspond to programming language tokens. There should be an API
      that lets a client program set the BreakIterator to be used for all
      breaking operations in the JTextComponent.

      See the related RFE 4644224.
