I did a major rework on the TextAreaModel and HTMLTextAreaModel. The new classes & interfaces now have their own package: de.matthiasmann.twl.textarea. The new model can now better represent CSS styles.

The following classes are used to specify styles:

• Style - stores all attributes for each element and a reference to the Style of it's surrounding element
• StyleAttribute - Similar to an enum, contains a list of all possible style attributes which can be set in a Style
• CSSStyle - a subclass of Style which can be constructed from a CSS style string

With the above classes the TextAreaModel.Element interface is now a lot smaller and easier to implement.

Any feedback on this would be appreciated.

Nice job!

Another update to TextArea: reworked how margin and padding is handled. It should now behave more like HTML/CSS. Vertical margin implementation is still incomplete.

Also the preferred way to specify a font via CSS is now style="font-family: bla". The old style="font: bla" is still supported.

Next update: All element interfaces have been changed into classes. This should make the implementation of custom TextAreaModel much easier.

Merging of vertical margin has been implemented, fixed a few errors in horizontal margin computations and paragraph end now uses a margin-bottom to implement the spacing. For this a Style class now has an option to specify alternate defaults which can be overridden by it's values or it's class reference.
