Image class and paths relative to classpath

[Daniel Zwolenski]

Yea sorry, I meant "don't like" as in "can't support". 

I am still curious though. How do you load properties files, synch with the Controller class or include custom controls without classpath/sourcepath support? Or are these things not part of SceneBuilder's scope?
