This is already fixed when running FX 8 with Java 8, by the following: RT-27054

This should be fixed if you run with the JDK 8 launcher. I will verify this, and if so, resolve it as fixed.

It has affected more than thousand tests on DnD, which used to transfer image. Looks like it affects any test with images. Raise priority

The indicated class looks like it is loading an Image in a static class initialization block which may or may not be an appropriate thread to load images from. This may not have caused any problems before because we did not need to know anything about the platform to load an image, but now we must know if the platform has a high resolution display before we load any images so that we can choose the appropriate image to load.
