That's always possible.  I couldn't find anything with an internet search, but closed source tools will not be found.  I missed Scene Builder, but only because I dismissed it too quickly since it had `com.oracle.*` packages and thought it was part of FX.  I can't find anything else.  These classes are not accepted as parameters anywhere, or returned as types anywhere, nor can they be constructed by 3rd parties.  The only way to get at their methods is with an explicit cast, like Scene Builder does.  At a minimum we need to warn people not to use these.
