No SimpleStringProperty.bind(Property, StringConverter) method

[Andy Till]

Is there a reason why no SimpleStringProperty.bind(Property, 
StringConverter) exists but 
SimpleStringProperty.bindBidirectional(Property, StringConverter) does 
or is this just an omission that I could perhaps request to be implemented?

I have a SimpleIntegerProperty that is bound to a NumberBinding.  A 
TextField.textProperty is then bound to the SimpleIntegerProperty but it 
throws the following exception:

java.lang.RuntimeException: A bound value cannot be set.
