This needs a CSR and a release note. Thanks for the reviews. I'll file the CSR, but let it sit for a while to also give others a chance to review or reply to the thread on the openjfx-dev mailing list. I will also need to merge master some time after #1832 is integrated, since there will be a (trivial) merge conflict for me to resolve. ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jfx/pull/1827#issuecomment-2985133895
