Jeff, Werner,
thank you very much for detailed evaluation. The issues you observe may
be related to recent changes in AWT/Swing in 7u25. If my guess is
correct, they should be fixed in the latest 7u40 builds. I know it's not
released yet, but early access builds are available at java.net. Could
you run your apps with 7u40 and check if the problems are gone, please?
Thanks,
Artem

Hi,
coincidentally we were experiencing the exact same problem with the
combination 7u25, OSX, Webstart. Also, we arrived at pretty much the
same workaround.
Investigation showed that multiple Swing eventqueues were created in the
above configuration. This would cause threading issues (NPE), paint
issues (flicker etc), drag-drop issues.
See below for a testcase: JFrame with a JButton and an fx button. When
clicked, the former prints its current thread, while the later switches
to EDT first (invokeLater) and then also prints the thread. On Windows,
this turns out to be the same thread as expected. On WebStart 7u25 OSX
we are getting different AWT-EventQueue-X threads.
