I prefer `subscribe` with overloads, as this comes closest to the existing naming scheme of JavaFX listener operations (`addListener` / `removeListener` with overloads). I would also like to see a subscription-style API that works with the existing listener types. This has the advantage of not needing a wrapper for each listener registration, and it can be a drop-in replacement in many places where JavaFX listeners are used today. My suggestion is to have the following new operations: * `subscribe` (`Runnable`, `Consumer`, `BiConsumer`) * `subscribeListener` (`InvalidationListener`, `ChangeListener`) This pairs nicely with the existing operations: * `addListener` (`InvalidationListener`, `ChangeListener`) * `removeListener` (`InvalidationListener`, `ChangeListener`) ------------- PR Review Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jfx/pull/1069#discussion_r1240925324
