JDK bug report tells all. Just throws NullPointerException's repeatedly if you try to display the Navigator window with content.
Have workaround.

Thanks Jesse.
*** Issue 59146 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. ***
Possible workarounds (none satisfactory): - use an earlier Mustang build (or perhaps a later one, if the bug gets fixed in the JDK) - use JDK 1.5.0 - close the Navigator window and never use it
Marking this issue as VERIFIED since the issue reporter == issue owner.
