Yes, you can easily create a list item renderer whose structure is defined in BXML by using a root element that implements the ListView.ItemRenderer interface. For example, you could create a subclass of TableView called CommentItemRenderer that implements this interface. You could use @BXML annotations to get access to the dateLabel, authorLabel, and summaryLabel elements so you can set their values in the render() method.
