If you are willing to expend another line of code, you could first
assign graphicProperty to a variable:
StylableProperty<Node> property = (StyleableProperty<Node>)graphicProperty();
property.applyStyle(origin, null);
You can then apply the unchecked annotation to the assignment only, so
future unchecked warnings in the same method will still be noticed.
