Description
Hi,

I'm a Java FX developer, and I'm implementing an application that needs a rich text editor, like JEditorPane in Swing or StyledText in SWT.

Unfortunately, there is no such a component in Java FX. Why did the Java FX developers decided to not include an editor component ?

HTMLEditor is not what I want.
TextArea is not suitable for what I want.
WebView can't handle what I need to do, except to add many Javascript code that I don't want.
TextFlow is not an editor

Will we see one day this kind of styled text editor in Java FX ?

Thank you.

Jiva.
