Offhand, I'd agree with most that VEA is a step backward from VMSA. I
can't comment on VXVA because I never extensively used it.

IMHO, VEA does not have as good a layout display as VMSA, and it is
slower.

Note to Veritas or Sun: what the #%*@ is up with these Java apps like
VEA and jnbSA that they won't function correctly under mouse focus?
VMSA was a java app that worked correctly, why can't the other two?

I'm a long-time twm user (the original and current standard Xwindows
window manager) and I get very frustrated when I have to manually
lock focus on a window in order for the entry boxes to accept my
keypresses. There's absolutely no acceptable reason for this -- it
goes against basic Xwindows principles.
