It would be nice if there was official support for mobile app packaging.

Cheers,

 Hi,

 Are there any official plans already for Java9?

 One of the major pain points I see is that the java-packager does not
 support to set a splash-screen and also ignores the -splash argument who
 works when launching with java ... .

 Another very obvious thing at least on all the windows machine I tried
 JavaFX is a black area while resizing stages this makes things look
 unprofessional.

 A very special request thing is WebGL support Webkit a customer ask me
 for but I guess this is a though thing todo because on windows we only
 have DirectX.

Does your app really need one? My laptop can throw a Stage onto the screen
in about 500msec. Then you can just show your own splash whilst the app
loads ...
