I think having prototypes of both a Metal pipeline and native Wayland
would be good in the JavaFX 18 time frame.
We hope to have something to share on Metal in a month or so. The JavaFX
Metal pipeline can leverage some of the work done for Java2D in the
Lanai project.
I'll let Johan comment on what he is thinking of for Wayland. As I
mentioned in another thread, this will be a lot of work (although not as
much as AWT / Swing / Java2D).

I think we (everyone committing/reviewing in openjdk/jfx) did a great
job with the 17-work: an impressive amount of old and annoying bugs
are fixed.
For 18 and beyond, I believe we have to keep working on those old
issues -- at least if they are still relevant.
Also, I am 100% ok with the list of issues Kevin mentioned that need
to be moved forward now.
Apart from that, I want to have support for Metal and Wayland in
JavaFX 18.

Now that JavaFX 17 is in RDP2, we can turn more attention to bug
fixes
and enhancement requests for JavaFX 18. It's the summer, so there
may be
delays as some people are out at various times (including me), but I
would like to get some of the outstanding enhancement requests moving
over the next few weeks.
Specifically, I'd like to see the following proceed:
* Transparent backgrounds in WebView

(Draft)
And maybe the following:
* Add CSS themes as a first-class concept (need a consensus on how to
proceed)
* Undecorated interactive stage style (still in early discussion, but
the concept looks interesting and useful)
There are probably others I'm forgetting.
Each of the above should be discussed in their own thread on
openjfx-dev
rather than a reply to this thread.
