Helpful plugin debugging aid

I don't think many jEdit developers know about this trick.
It is very useful for tracking down plugin bugs in a live jEdit instance.
After calling this BeanShell code:
setAccessibility(true);
You can manipulate any private, protected or package-private variable or method.
