Details:

In java.beans.FeatureDescriptor, the getDisplayName() method should default
to the getName() value if the displayName hasn't been defined.  The
getShortDescription() method should default to the getDisplayName() value if
the shortDescription hasn't been defined.  This is specified in the Javadoc
for FeatureDescriptor:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/beans/FeatureDescriptor.html#getDisplayName()

So in essence, getDisplayName() and getShortDescription() should never return
null if getName() has a value.  The Classpath implementation just returns the
displayName and shortDescription value, even if they are null.
