If I recall, there were a few developers that chimed in. It's a simple
enough addition -- at least your original proposal (not the suggestion
of mirroring the Color API, which I don't like) -- that it seems OK to me.
Can you repost your currently proposed API and see if those who might
like to use it are satisfied with it?

Another option could be to mirror the `Color` API in both `Border` and
`Background`, like in the following examples:
Color.rgb(125, 100, 75)
Border.rgb(125, 100, 75)
Background.rgb(125, 100, 75)
Color.gray(127)
Border.gray(127)
Background.gray(127)
Color.web("orange", 0.5)
Border.web("orange", 0.5)
Background.web("orange", 0.5)
We could also mirror the named color constants, which would enable a
very compact syntax:
StackPane pane = new StackPane();
pane.setBorder(Border.RED);
pane.setBackground(Background.BLUE);
This is very similar to how "red" or "blue" are valid values for
"-fx-border" or "-fx-background" in CSS.
