the JIRA mentioned is not public - we the e(fx)clipse project are
working on such a feature as well for one of our next releases - so if
openjfx does provide it we could spend our time on other important
improvements!

Not trying to be unduly critical but is it for some performance gain or
something? Surely the load time is minimal. Given that I have a dozen XML
config files, a handful of property files and a thousand FXML files that are
being loaded by my app it seems like a whole lot of extra complexity and space
for bugs to crawl in for no gain. Maybe I'm missing some benefit of this?
The benefit is performance. It is much faster to deserialize the binary format
than to invoke the parser.
And we're talking orders of magnitude here. And don't forget about iOS /
Android / PI / Beagle / and friends. We didn't do bss because we thought it was
cool, I can promise you that. Neither are we looking at compiling FXML into
class files (RT-23527) for the fun of it ;-).
