JDK-8088859 - [Mac] Cannot exit FX application while file chooser is opened
Description
Start SceneBuilder.
Take menubar > File > Open
Exit from the tool (via menubar): the main SceneBuilder window goes away but the process remains live.
The SceneBuilder process is hanged. If you kill the file chooser window it triggers the stack below but still the process doesn't die.

On Win and Linux there's no such issue because the lack of system menu bar prevents from taking menu Exit action while file chooser is opened. You can only dismiss the main SceneBuilder window by clicking on the decoration exit button but nothing harms, and eventually you close the file chooser then the process terminates.

SceneBuilder has been removed from jfx-dev. Closing as "Wont' fix".

as P3 should be fixed or deferred

I suggest we do not document this one in the RN since it's only on Mac and I do not think anybody except Sandra ever found the issue. Please let me know if you think otherwise.

JUSTIFICATION: This issue is caused by a runtime bug (RT-36109), which will not be fixed until 8u20. FileChooser is used in too many different places and different contexts in SB for us to work-around the issue now. The issue is a corner case, and only occurs on the Mac. The impact when it occurs is just that the user has to force quit the application. There is no loss of user data. PROPOSAL: Defer to a Future Release.

Menu bar controller is laking some logic : it should take into account whether a FileChooser is open or not when enabling/disabling commands.
