JavaFX Form Validation

[Tom Schindl]

Well my fear is that the more functions you push into JavaFX the more
code they have to maintain and the less time they can spend on controls
I still see missing (e.g. TreeTable control) who hurt JavaFX a lot more
than a missing validation system.

If you push every piece of highlevel feature (and yes I see validation
as a highlevel feature) into a Graphics and Control-Library - at least
this is my understanding of JavaFX  - then you end up with a big beast
you have to abandon one day once more.

So while I understand that having a standard validation system I'd like
to see resources invested in:
a) A validation visualization API at the control level
b) Implementing Controls
