Since Java 9 makes com.sun.glass.ui.Robot unavailable, is there any
interest in making it public? There seems to be a bug for it here:
https://bugs.java.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=8090763#
The TestFX developers also made a proposal (not sure if they shared on this
list):
https://gist.github.com/brcolow/26370db6cab0355186d4a1d13b30fc19
https://github.com/TestFX/Robot
In addition to their notes, I'd also suggest that keyPress and keyRelease
be handled globally like in AWT Robot. Developers could then press Ctrl +
Tab to change applications, for example.
