Hi Doug,
We are targeting these bugs for 8u40 and expect to fix them. I suggest
that you add yourself to some of the worst ones and keep an eye on
things. It may be that you will be able to come back but in the
meantime, switching back to the SWT Browser hell will ensure that you
will be able to render the pages in cases where WebView fails.

We're seeing some really horrible rendering issues with the WebView. We're
running it under a SWT FXCanvas so I'm not sure whether it's the WebView or
FXCanvas. But I do see a number of report of WebView rendering problems on
stack overflow and in JIRA. The comment in this one has me very worried.

"We are sorry, but at this time we have no resources to work on WebView bugs for the
8u20 release. Unfortunately, we will have to defer them to 8u40."
As things stand, we'll have to switch back to SWT Browser hell because this new
hell is much worse. Just wondering what the timeline for 8u40 would be so we
can come back.
Doug.
