I'm the maintainer of glg2d and I can comment on that. glg2d provides support for the majority of the painting operations you want to do with Graphics2D. It's still a work in progress, but it can handily render an entire Swing hierarchy. Unfortunately, there are limitations in Swing that really do require that you are running inside a Swing app. If your JOGL canvas isn't in a JFrame, it becomes very hard to render Swing components. We do have some support for that, but it's limited.
