I just raised the priority to P3. It hits every JavaFX application the
first time you move the mouse into the window. It's already targeted to
openjfx14, but if anyone has time to take a look at this, a contribution
would be welcome.

Yes. Please! I was looking at this a while ago but I'm not familiar
enough with the source to see where the problem lies.

I would like to ask whether it doesn't make sense to give this issue
a little more attention than P4:
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8231513
Essentially, as Kevin Rushforth confirmed in the Ticket, any JavaFX
application will trigger a warning on the latest stable macOS release
that it is requesting permissions to an API to receive key events.
I want to stress that denying this permission will not impair the
functionality of any JavaFX controls in any way.
Nevertheless this warning lets any JavaFX application appear as a
malware. This is especially worrying for productivity apps used in
enterprise environments. The only thing downstream developers can do
atm is fingerpointing at JavaFX, which harms its spread as a UI
frameworks for cross platform dev.
I suggest to solve this earlier than with openjfx-14, since it will
affect any JavaFX app for any macOS Catalina user.
