TextArea might not be the best choice (it needs a bit of work, currently scheduled for Pivot 1.5.1). How about appending Labels to a vertical BoxPane? Either option won't work quite like a console, since it will grow indefinitely (whereas a console generally maintains a fixed-size buffer or no buffer at all), but I think the BoxPane option should be OK as long as you don't plan to write too much to it.
