Was reading 
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/29258944/where-is-the-src-zip-for-jdk8u40 
on location on sec.zip and they had in similar layout for JDK and Java-Jax 
locations. Assume as long as jfx isn’t loaded at the same location as JDK 
(which since it’s a separate project now) this shouldn’t be a problem.
