Could AbstractTab#isVisible() be backported to 1.3-branch?

[Edvin Syse <ed...@sysedata.no>]

Hi,

I see that AbstractTab has gotten an isVisible() method in the 
1.4-branch, would it be possible to backport this to 1.3? I can't 
upgrade to 1.4 yet, and need this functionality :)

Sincerely,
Edvin Syse

Agree, that's ugly :)

it is actually ITab#isVisible() which is an api break not allowed in
1.3.x releases.

we can possibbly add it just to AbstractTab and then do an instanceof
check, but that is quiet ugly. this is what 1.4 release is for.

you can easily roll your own panel until you can update to 1.4
