Hi Frank,
Yes, the fact that Component.add() doesn't take care of
showing the new component is a bug.
If you are writing an application (opposed to an applet),
you can call pack() on the window to force the new guy to
show up. If you are writing an applet, try calling
panel.validate() as a workaround.
Let me know if you have problems with either workaround --
I hope to get this fixed for the next release (post 1.0).
