Thanks for investigating this, time-slider is still developed in
the open by Oracle, see
http://src.opensolaris.org/source/xref/jds/time-slider/
We currently ship the latest version so this has not been fixed
upstream.
So I figure in this case it would make sense to raise this issue
upstream with the information you already provided at the OI
tracker. If they do not fix it in a reasonable timeframe we'll
have to come up with a fix on our own.
Would you mind filing a bug at http://defect.opensolaris.org/ and
linking to it from the OI bug afterwards?
TIA,
