Why is JXTable losing input where JTable is not?

When I'm using a JXTable to render and edit my data, some input into the CellEditors gets lost. If I click on the Resizing-Divider of the JXTable-ColumnHeader or change the width of the JFrame, the CellEditor gets terminated without commiting the value. The values are saved if I use the JTable.

I want to use the JXTable because of its other features, so is there a way to fix the JXTable?

Example:

package table.columnresize;

import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JScrollPane;
import javax.swing.JTable;
import javax.swing.table.DefaultTableModel;

import org.jdesktop.swingx.JXTable;

/**

  }

}

While debugging the JXTable and the JTable I found the reason for the loss of CellEdits. The difference is in the method columnMarginChanged():

JXTable:

if (isEditing()) {
  removeEditor();
}

JTable:

if (isEditing() && !getCellEditor().stopCellEditing()) {
  getCellEditor().cancelCellEditing();
} 

At first I thought the removeEditor() method is an enhancement of the JTable... But then I found this OpenJDK changeset from September 2010 which fixes the bug "4330950: Lost newly entered data in the cell when resizing column width". It seems that changes from the JDK were not applied to the SwingX sourcecode.

I will accept my own answer because the reason for different behaviour is now clear. To fix this for me and other SwingX users I will head over to the SwingX mailing list and the bug tracker.
