I'm so glad you found it! I posted a link to the issue, along with two 
others, on this mailing list a year ago, but I think people were too 
busy with all the Java 9 changes happening at the time (rightfully so).

I was reluctant to open the official bugs on the Oracle page before 
testing whether they still occur in the latest version. Actually, I 
haven't even had the time to check whether they still occur in the 
latest OpenJFX 8.

In general, what should we do when we find bugs in version 8 but the 
latest development is happening on version 11? Open the bug, or test it 
against the latest version first?

Thanks,
John
