I think this scenario warrants bumping the issue to P3. -andy

We developed a small application and gave it to a small number of the customer’s employees for testing. The application was tested on both Linux and Windows. We encountered serious problems on Linux. Due to bug JDK-8371781, popup windows are not displayed to the user, but they are still present in the scene. As a result, a user can click on elements in these popups without being able to see them, potentially triggering actions that they absolutely should not be able to perform. Therefore, I decided to bring this issue to the attention of the JavaFX developers and warn others about the potential safety implications of using JavaFX on Linux. Best regards, Pavel
