It does seems like there is a possible inconsistency for `TreeCell` and 
`TreeTableRow`. I'm not sure it matters in practice, since an application 
doesn't directly manage the creation of the cells (other than by providing a 
cell factory) or setting the item. The pseudo-class state of the cell is a 
proxy for the item it points to. Ideally, it would only contain the "empty" 
state if the item is null, but given that such a cell would never be rendered 
it would be hard to point to something that doesn't work as a result.

In any case, since there are larger issues than just setting the default state 
for `TreeCell` and `TreeTableRow` I'd prefer to decouple them from this issue 
and file a follow-up issue (which doesn't need to be looked at any time soon).
