/**
 * Registration utility class to add {@link GestureListener}s to Swing components.
 *
 * This class manages the relationship between {@link JComponent}s and the {@link GestureListener}s
 * attached to them. It's design is similar to the Java SE 6u10 {@link com.sun.awt.AWTUtilities}
 * class which adds additional functionality to AWT Windows, without adding new API to the
 * {@link java.awt.Window} class.
 *
 * To add a {@link GestureListener} to a top-level Swing window, use the {@link JRootPane} of the
 * top-level window type.

 * @see JFrame#getRootPane()
