It would be easy enough to add one as a convenience method, if it
was deemed useful enough. Andy can comment further.<br>

To be honest, I think this will create problems when working with
the RichTextArea API. <br>
<br>
Why? Because every developer will intuitively look for setText.
For example, TextArea<br>
—<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/javafx/api/javafx/scene/control/TextArea.html" moz-do-not-send="true">https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/javafx/api/javafx/scene/control/TextArea.html</a>
— <br>
has setText. CodeArea has setText. But RichTextArea doesn't. <br>
<br>
This doesn't seem very good. But that's just my personal opinion.<br>
<br>

PS. Just don't think I spend my free time
analyzing Javadoc. It's just that I once opened
an issue in RTFX suggesting<br>
to add a setText method, and today, seeing this
issue, I decided to mention that JavaFX
RichTextArea has such<br>
a method. However, I was surprised not to find
it.<br>
