This may be exactly why JavaFX might fare better than both Swing and JSF. Code generated by a RAD editors can not be hand coded at the same time, you pretty much have to make the choice up-front, can't have them both. So as a first for the Java world, seems like the round-trip engineering legacy of Visual Basic is being picked up by JavaFX. I hope so anyway. :)
