I'd be interested in hearing from application developers as to whether and how they would use such a feature. As with all non-trivial features, we don't want to do it if only one or two developers are asking for it. This seems a reasonably new CSS feature; Firefox just added support in FF 85 released earlier this year and Safari still doesn't. That suggests it might be a bit early to adopt this for JavaFX.

Also, one thing that isn't clear is whether there would be any user visible change using the standard themes. I presume that the answer is "no", meaning that unless your stylesheets do anything with focus-visible, it will not affect the look and feel of the app. That should be stated explicitly

I also presume that there would be no application visible changes when using the standard themes, other than the presence of the two new read-only boolean properties?

I have expanded the scope of the proposal to include the :focus-within

The updated text of the proposal can be found in the JBS ticket:

I'm looking forward to comments.
