You could do it pretty much the same way, I think.  Just access the
private fields of the peers.  But, I would recommend against it.

This isn't supported, and will probably break.  For one thing we are
most likely going to BC-compile AWT, Swing, and the peers, and CNI and
BC don't really work that well together (yet).

There is also the 'libjawt' stuff; this is a portable way to access
the underlying rendering surface of the awt peers.
