When you invoke setEditable(false) on a Swing text
component such as JTextArea, the cursor gets set to
DEFAULT_CURSOR (instead of null). I noticed this
when I set the cursor on the parent -- it wasn't
inherited by the text component.

Some further comments:

  That code is a little weird in other respects too. What
  if the developer calls setCursor on the JTextField and
  then setEditable. It's going to clobber their cursor.
  This stuff should be fixed, and I think it should also
  be moved into BasicTextUI. There, it can be handled on
  the "editable" property change notification, and we can
  use UIResource to appropriately tag the cursor (like we
  do with colors, fonts, etc... to stop from clobbering
  what the user sets).
