Ignore the previous comment. that was meant for a different bug.

The editor will properly prevent the user from using the invalid method name if the editor is invoked from the property sheet. However, if the user uses the 
'set action' context menu item then the user will get a 'no valid value' dialog, and then the method will be created. It should behave the same as the property 
sheet version.

This is fixed. The ActionEditor will now properly throw a PropertyVetoException if the method name starts with anything other than a letter or if the name 
contains a non-word character.

The name is not checked properly - now it does not allow to enter multibyte characters (e.g. Czech letters) which should
be possible.

Note you should use org.openide.util.Utilities.isJavaIdentifier for checking the name.

The code now uses the org.openide.util.Utilities.isJavaIdentifier() method to check the method name.  This bug is fixed now.
