Cleaning up Control codebase - How to deal with StyleableProperty cast

[Jonathan Giles]

IntelliJ says the following:

=========================
Unchecked cast: 'javafx.beans.property.BooleanProperty' to 
'javafx.css.StyleableProperty<java.lang.Boolean>'

*JDK 5.0 only.*
Signals places where an unchecked warning is issued by the compiler, for 
example:

|void f(HashMap map) {
       map.put("key", "value");
}
|=========================

Perhaps the 'JDK 5.0 only' is significant? I honestly don't know....
