Description
According to the spec in DTL-5714, editors that accept a number will not allow you to type a letter. I feel it will be useful to take this one step further and also not allow ���-��� to be typed where the editor will not accept a negative value.
Comments
SceneBuilder has been removed from jfx-dev. Closing as "Wont' fix".

No, I don't plan to do this for 2.0, this does not fit with the feature freeze date. Although some value types (width, height) are known as never negatives, for some other types (that cannot be nagative) I guess metadata information would be needed.

Jerome, please let me know where we stand regarding this one. Are we still trying to do anything here in 2.0 ?
