The do all inherit form java.lang.Object because every class in Java
does.

A Window is an abstract class that defines a standard set of behaviors
that its descendants will have.

The View class inherits from Window and provides a basic
implementation of how to create a rectangular region of the screen
that can draw itself and be interacted with by the user.

The Dialog class does *not* inherit from View or Window. It provides a
basic implementation for presenting a control the user will interact
with. It is a bit surprising to me that Dialog does not inherit from
View, but I can see how Dialogs have enough specific features where it
would have its own base class.
