<p>That is not to say that we should not do anything. On the
contrary, I'd love it if we could do more. But in the right
place. Stability and basic features inside OpenJFX,
experiments and libraries in the ecosystem.</p>

<p>JavaFX could have a "basic" Rich Text Area (RTA) for common needs
such as syntax coloration, underlining errors, etc., and external
projects such as Gluon could have more sophisticated controls for
more advanced needs. I would appreciate a lot to have a Rich Text
Area included in JavaFX for "basic" needs, because it would avoid
adding another dependency. I'm always very reluctant to do the
latter, because few projects are economical in their own
dependencies. Many projects bring ton of dependencies, often
outdated, often conflicting with other projects bringing different
versions of the same dependencies.</p>
<p>So I do not see a JavaFX RTA and a Gluon RTA as mutually
exclusive. I would use the JavaFX one for e.g., syntax coloration,
and if I need something more advanced I would look at the
alternatives. This is the same situation as other controls such as
DatePicker or ColorPicker: they are sufficient for "basic" needs,
more elaborated alternatives may exist in other projects.<br>
