  /**
   * Replace the normal GWT.create() behavior with a method that returns null
   * instead of throwing a runtime exception. This is to allow JUnit tests to
   * mock classes that make GWT.create() calls in their static initializers.
   * This is not for use with GWTTestCase, and is not for use testing widgets
   * themselves. Rather, it is to allow pure java unit tests of classes that
   * need to manipulate widgets.
   * 
   * 
   * NOTE: Be sure to call {@link #restore} in your tearDown
   * method, to avoid confusing downstream tests.
   * 
   * 

   * Sample use:
   * 
   * 
@Override
   * public void setUp() throws Exception {
   *   super.setUp();
   *   GWTMockUtilities.disarm();
   * }
   *
   * @Override
   * public void tearDown() {
   *   GWTMockUtilities.restore();
   * }
   * 
   * public void testSomething() {
   *   MyStatusWidget mock = EasyMock.createMock(MyStatusWidget.class);
   *   EasyMock.expect(mock.setText("expected text"));
   *   EasyMock.replay(mock);
   *   
   *   StatusController controller = new StatusController(mock);
   *   controller.setStatus("expected text");
   *   
   *   EasyMock.verify(mock);
