Programmatic JavaFXBuilder w/o JavaFX bean properties

[Will Hoover]

That may make more sense. What about allowing for a means to provide
bidirectional bindings? Any Thoughts?

BTW, I'm not sure why, but it doesn't look like I have permissions to view

I think this makes sense. I have actually been thinking about doing
something similar to address this issue:

  http://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-21559

I have been envisioning something more along the lines of this:

  myObject.myJavaFxControlProperty().bind(new ExpressionValue(person,
"location.name"));

However, the end result would be the same - you'd be able to easily create a
binding between a property model and an expression.
