Amusingly, I spent half an hour extracting the smallest code sample
that would reproduce it and, of course, it turned out I couldn't
reproduce it.

As I mentioned, my mail hasn't been reaching the list, and I first ran
into this a few weeks back. It's possible that a JavaFX update in the
intervening weeks fixed the root cause (I likely wasn't even up-to-date
when I ran into it, so it could be any reasonably recent release that
fixed it).

I'm back working on the original ITs now, so I'll see if I run into it
again.
