I would love to file a bug, as this is really big hole for javafx.
As other gui tool kits support it, so should javafx.

If I can log into to https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/ I will file a bug,
if it doesn't exist, but right now login appears broken.

I am totally agreed with you on this one. Unfortunately couple weeks ago, I 
spent days on searching solution for this issue. NSMenuFX is only one actually 
working.

This method sends us down a hybrid-app route, which I am trying to get
away from.
Is there no pure javafx complete solution for OSX?

I used NSMenuFX, which is using eclipse swt. It works very well on Mac

What is the method for a pure javafx app to control the osx

       application

menu bar (e.g. About, Preferences, Quit, etc)?

The menu bar area I am asking about can be seen in a native

       Mac OS

applications menu under <AppName>:
About <AppName>
Preferences...
Services
Hide <AppName>
Hide Others
Show All
Quit <AppName>

When I use the javapackager (aka javafxpackager ) to make a

       stand alone

app on osx the title of this bar becomes my app name,

       however how do I

control the other parts (e.g. About, Preferences, Quit,

       etc)?

My javafx application has a javafx MenuBar in each window

       (Stage) with

the property useSystemMenuBar set to true, in order to show

       a

more-native behavior, where the menu bar appears in the

       Apple menu bar

at the top of the screen for the active window, but this

       does not give

me control over the areas in question.

Please respond with only methods that do swing, awt, or

       eawt, as I have

not seen this published anywhere.
