Yes.

Me neither. I am Eclipse user. And never use auto generated code for
GUI. I really don't like GUI's at all.

Hm. I believe that some GUI's actual used the code as source for
GUI builder.

It is almost a requirement for a bi-directional GUI builder where
one can eithe ruse tool or manual edit the code, where the latter
does not break the GUI builder (assuming you play nice).

But NB used to be uni-directional and if it still is, then that
logic does not apply.
