Okay, it's the first time I've come across to such a use of `map`.

Take a look at
[DefaultTableCellRenderer.getTableCellRendererComponent](https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blob/master/src/java.desktop/share/classes/javax/swing/table/DefaultTableCellRenderer.java#L201).

What is more important code readability or the strict limit of 80 columns?
All in all, all these styles are used throughout `java.desktop` module.

Do I revert the change to this line?
Any other suggestions? What is your preference?
