After discussion and debate, we've decided the best course of action right now is to drop the JavaFX-Application-Class support for this round and revisit (hopefully quickly) in M6. This should alleviate any concerns for Profile support. There are other issues that require work to be done on the FX side before we can proceed beyond this, but this should provide a good baseline to accommodate those changes when they're ready.

So, without further ado, here's the updated webrev:
