Thanks. 8u-dev is 8u76 now so I updated the fixversion.

Thanks for confirming Kevin. I have created JDK-8144200 and targeted it (almost arbitrarily) to 8u72. This may need changing, I don't know what version is correct.

Yes, this should be backported to 8u, as long as Jonathan is comfortable with the fix. Approved for backporting to 8u.

As this is a regression and the fix is so minimal. Would it be a candidate for a backport to 8u something?

Based on an early exploration, this issue seems related to the TableRowSkinBase.updateCells method, when resetChildren is true and the fullRefreshCounter is zero (so the cells are recreated). In this situation, I can see the flicker happens at the same time a println is shown on the console. Will explore ASAP.
