not a review, just some initial comments :)

It has a fat scope : cross-product of 

- editing life-cycle methods (all xxEdit have the same issue with strengthening 
the precondition, not only startEdit) 
- base cell type (for each virtualized)
- editing component on cell (textField, comboBox ..)

There might be particular problems for each in separation and additional when 
combined - pretty sure that there was a reason for implementing the inheritance 
constraint violation - we must be certain to understand that in each case and 
fix it correctly (might turn out to be very similar, though)

We probably should limit the scope somehow:  f.i. solve 

- for all edit methods
- for the most used editable cell (TextField) 
- in the most used editable control (TableView) 

With the lessons learned, we can swarm out, either on the cell-type or 
editing-component axis. Probably should create an umbrella task to collect this 
and all follow-up issues.

- don't know what the convention here is: but I would prefer __not__ remove 
tests that are added for another issue (except they are testing the wrong 
thingy, as are the old tests expecting the NPE
- don't mix :) here we are concerned about the NPE, nothing else (except that 
editing is still working, which should be covered by the old tests)
