The main issue that necessitates creation of install() and moving it outside of the skin's constructor is the fact that certain code just cannot be inside of the skin's constructor - because the old skin is still attached. So it must be called after the old skin has been removed in setSkin(). I don't think there is a way around it. Those user-defined skins (and the affected core skins) that modify singletons or rely on internals of the superclass - must be refactored. The others, which only add listeners and children nodes, can remain unchanged. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.org/jfx/pull/845
