      Feedbacks from a CAP member:

      * When I open two or more JVMs, jconsole creates separate internal
         frames for each JVM. But when I close some JVMs so I'm back to
         only one, jconsole doesn't allow to expand the single frame to use
         the entire window (without frame and border).

      * Displays of large numbers, like heap sizes in bytes, should use
         separators for readability, i.e. 388.320.010 instead of 388320010.

      * Provide menu option to clear all data collected so far for a
         VM, but without having to disconnect/reconnect. And another
         option to change dynamically the -interval.

      * The "Connect to Host" dialog should allow to pick a Java process
         from a combobox containing all JVMs found in the selected host.

      * Please use the system look&feel, or at least provide an easy
         configuration allowing me to force it. Even the JPI Control
         Panel has surrended to the system LAF...

      * Provide buttons to hide/show each pane in the Memory and Classes
         tabs, just like in the Threads and MBeans tabs.

      * In the Memory tab (at least), the line is not contiguous, it's a
         sequence of segments that don't connect perfectly. This should
         be true in all graphs but it's more evident here.

      * In the Memory tab, the graphis in the right side (esp. Non-Heap)
         are not correctly positioned, so they're cropped.

      * The launcher shouldn't open a console. To avoid this, I'm forced
         to use a shortcut: javaw.exe -jar C:\Java\JDK.150\lib\jconsole.jar
         but this shouldn't be necessary.
