I tried passing along '-splash:<path>' with the other Web Start arguments and it worked fine. That's okay for AWT-based Web Start apps, but I'm concerned about JavaFX apps. I know libosxapp doesn't actually pull in the AWT, but now I need to test that JavaFX will work okay if it finds an NSApplicationAWT already started when Glass creates its application.

Since both the splash screen and FX want its own instance of NSApp, 
using both is impossible at this moment. Or the FX app must be run in 
the embedded mode (as if there's full AWT running - but it's really 
unneeded since it's enough what we've got in libosxapp already for FX to 
run smoothly).
