Something I noticed while experimenting with RichTextFX, when I set it to use 
Fira Code for the font, like I do in NetBeans, I see that JavaFX doesn't 
support ligatures.  I found this issue that's been around for quite some time:
https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8091616

Is there any drive to get this implemented within the next few releases?  I 
would help, but unfortunately I suspect it will take more time than I can 
commit to it.
I’m hoping that eliminating some of the remaining gaps between what JavaFX 
supports and Swing supports would be a priority, as it removes some barriers to 
JavaFX adoption... but maybe not?

Regards,

Scott
