The new API looks OK to me. I left a couple comments on the API docs.

modules/javafx.controls/src/main/java/javafx/scene/control/skin/TableHeaderRow.java line 468:

"item" --> "items"

modules/javafx.controls/src/main/java/javafx/scene/control/skin/TableHeaderRow.java line 472:

> 470:      *

Minor: by convention, the text following `@param` and `@return` tags should not end with a period.
