Yes. One might wonder what they were thinking:

"For 1.1, let us make this nice Bean model, with property editors
giving a Java initialization string they can put into setFoo() methods
in generated source-code. For that reason, let us make all-property-
setting constructors for all helper classes in the AWT, _except_ for
GridBagConstraints - for reasons only known to Bob."

"Yeah, let's."
