Roger Whitcomb commented on PIVOT-947:
--------------------------------------

I know this patch allows me to do what I want to do, but I question its general 
applicability.  Just don't know (easily) how to do this any other way.  That 
is, the alternative is to clone the whole class to add these things myself, 
which seems really overkill.  Unless someone else has a suggestion.  I guess 
one alternative would be to make more things "public", and/or make the 
"getSkin()" method public (esp. for VFSBrowser, but it would have to be in 
general, which I don't think is a good idea).

Thoughts? Suggestions?  Thanks.

> In my use of the VFSBrowser and VFSBrowserSheet classes, I need to add some 
> extra controls that are not in the regular dialog, such as a button to switch 
> modes and extra label fields in the Sheet.  So, there needs to be hooks in 
> order to do this (this is similar to what was added earlier to the regular 
> file browser sheet to add a character set selection).
