/**
 * Identifies components that can be used to paint the preview column in a 
 * JBrowser. Unlike other renderers, this one is not just used for a rubber stamp.
 * The renderer is added to the preview column of the JBrowser.
 * 
 * For example, to use a JLabel as a BrowserPreviewRenderer, you 
 * would write something like this:
 * 
 * class MyPreviewRenderer extends JLabel implements BrowserPreviewRenderer {
 *     public MyPreviewRenderer() {
 *         setOpaque(true);
 *     }
 *     public Component getPreviewRendererRendererComponent(
 *         JBrowser browser,
 *         TreePath[] paths
 *         )
 *     {
 *         setText((paths.length == 1) 
 *            ? values[0].getLastPathComponent().toString() 
 *            : values.length+" items");
 *         return this;
 *     }
