Why is Panel not abstract?
I just got a question about:
Markup of type 'html' for component
'org.apache.wicket.markup.html.panel.Panel' not found
because it used a panel (but he meant to use in this example a
WebMarkupContainer)
But i think he shouldnt be allowed to say new Panel() at all...
I would expect that it would be abstract just like Page or am i missing
something obvious here?

Would it break the API in 1.4.x? The Panel class isn't usable as a
concrete class, so folks probably aren't doing new Panel() (and if
they are, they shouldn't be). No big deal, really I guess.

I raised the same question a while ago:
http://old.nabble.com/Panel-instances-ts25922356.html#a25922356
seems to be fixed in 1.5, but left as-is in 1.4 in order not to create
an api break
cheers,
Jonas
