yes I believe so.

Artem just about has javafx-embed-swing and javafx-embed-swt ready to go. I think the following will also be ready to go late next week  / early week after (but need to double check):

I want Felipe to prototype an implementation that delegates directly to the native font code for measurement / glyph generation / layout / etc, rather than using Freetype on all platforms. We need to then get performance #'s on this. I want Felipe to work on this in the open source from the start. The only issue here is that Felipe is also fundamentally involved in bug fixing and our backlog is growing quite large.
