The updated API and implementation look good. I left one minor comment about the new `system()` method and will reapprove if you make changes.

modules/jfx.incubator.richtext/src/main/java/jfx/incubator/scene/control/richtext/LineEnding.java line 57:

> 57:      * {@code System.getProperty("line.separator")}.

Minor: `System.lineSeparator()` is preferred over `System.getProperty("line.separator")`.
