Blurry strokes and zooming via scale transforms

[Tom Eugelink]

I recently had a similar situation, but then because certain properties were calculated-via-binding and the resulting value was not "snapped" to good values either.

This resulted in my suggestion to allow custom calculations in bindings, which would then snap the value.
https://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-37255

And transformations on such values have the same effect of course. I was wondering, similar to the binding suggestion, would it be possible to apply a snapping transformation as the last transformation?
