When it rains, it pours.
Another JAL 787 problem, this time a fuel leak in Boston.

My two cents: The windshield crack is nothing to note. It happens on hundreds of planes a day. The fact that it happened on a 787 was a freebie to the media, who don't know any better. I'm willing to bet that it's happened a few times already.
The oil leak is something overblown too. That, I'm willing to bet it was a maintenance issue. Probably just an overfill condition.
That said, given all the redundancies that I've seen and are aware of on that plane, I still would say it's one of the safest planes to fly out there.
