Need help choosing a class name for CSS public API

[Randahl Fink Isaksen]

In that case, CssMetaData would be more readable. It is the old HTTPURL vs. HttpUrl readability issue.

The class name in the proposal is StyleablePropertyMetaData and, to some extent, that is what the class is since this is where the node's property and the css property come together. The meta-data for Node's opacityProperty is shown below. As you can see, there is some information about the css property name (-fx-opacity), the type of value (a <size>) and the initial property value. There are also two methods that are used by CSS so that CSS can set the property value.

I was thinking StyleAgent since this class takes an active role in interacting with the node property. But "agent" has the connotation of something running in the background.  Maybe StyleLiaison?
