[REVIEW] Allow caller to specify no-arg controller method as an event handler

[Daniel Zwolenski]

Nice! I support the idea of mapping to the most specific method.

Please, please, please support it binding to a method defined on any parent
class, not just the child one.

A side note to your side note. "An Introduction to FXML" it is not,
especially when we have "Get Started with FXML". I feel this should be
better named "FXML Reference Guide".
