I think that serialization mechanism will be removed from JDK not soon.
Besides, as I hear there will be provided another solution for serialization.
For example, how can RMI work without serialization?

That's why I suggest TO IMPLEMENT this feature but NOT TO CLOSE IT.
And when new serialization framework will be ready move JavaFX to that
framework.
