In that case, depending on which direction you go, we may or may not need an impl note (and I wouldn't bother with a release note, since I think the compatibility risk is small enough anyway; I could be talked into a release note if others feel differently).

> Another question is whether we should use ListenerHelper for `control.addEventHandler(InputMethodEvent.INPUT_METHOD_TEXT_CHANGED` , but that would move this PR into a draft stage until ListenerHelper is integrated. Or perhaps it could be done as a part of [JDK-8296076](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8296076).

Doing it as part of JDK-8296076 seems best.
