JavaFX dependency injection

[Tom Schindl]

JavaFX is a UI-Toolkit and not an UI-Framework, JavaFX provides all the
hooks needed to integrate with whatever DI-Container (Sping, Guice, ...)
you want it to run on.

I would go for 1. as the general recommendation and there are frameworks
out there who do exactly this type of thing.
