This is a rather large addition to the properties API, but there seems
to be enough interest in it that it might be worth getting to the point
of a concrete proposal that we could discuss on the list.
I wouldn't expect it for JavaFX 18, since it will almost certainly take
longer than that. Which makes this a good time to remind folks that the
development model under the six month release cycle is such that
features go in when ready, rather than necessarily being tied to a
specific release.

It was received well I think, and there was some interest from Nir
Lisker to work on a proposal.

Now that JavaFX 17 is in RDP2, we can turn more attention to bug fixes
and enhancement requests for JavaFX 18. It's the summer, so there may be
delays as some people are out at various times (including me), but I
would like to get some of the outstanding enhancement requests moving
over the next few weeks.
Specifically, I'd like to see the following proceed:
* Transparent backgrounds in WebView
JBS: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8090547
PR: https://github.com/openjdk/jfx/pull/563
* Add DirectionalLight
JBS: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8234921
PR: https://github.com/openjdk/jfx/pull/548
* CSS pseudoclasses :focus-visible and :focus-within
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8268225
PR: https://github.com/openjdk/jfx/pull/475
* Improve property system to facilitate correct usage (minus the binary
incompatible API change)
JBS: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8268642
PR: https://github.com/openjdk/jfx/pull/590 (Draft)
And maybe the following:
* Add CSS themes as a first-class concept (need a consensus on how to
proceed)
* Undecorated interactive stage style (still in early discussion, but
the concept looks interesting and useful)
There are probably others I'm forgetting.
Each of the above should be discussed in their own thread on openjfx-dev
rather than a reply to this thread.
