subject missing inherited members
code
what happened
scala doc does not show members that are inherited.
what expected expect a list of inherited members, like in java doc. the documentation is next to useless -- try to find out whether scala.collection.mutable.HashMap has a get method!

minor fix pending for inherited Java methods

The fix is very good! However, I would wish there were a better way to handle "multiple inheritance". in scala.collection.mutable.HashMap for instance, the method get is not only obtained from DefaultMapModel (that's just the implementation), but is is there because it is required in mutable.Map
The simple solution is to list all paths (see javadoc for GZipOutputStream which "inherits" a method from an interface and the implementation from a class.)
