Debugging JavaFX

[Kevin Rushforth]

That should have been enough to enable local variable symbols. We have 
the following logic for JavaCompile tasks:

         compile.options.debugOptions.debugLevel = IS_DEBUG_JAVA ? 
"source,lines,vars" : "source,lines"

IS_DEBUG_JAVA is true if CONF is either Debug or DebugNative.

Maybe something else is stripping out the symbols.

Has anyone else debugged JavaFX recently and tried to look at local 
vars? If not, I'll take a quick look later today.
