I messed with JavaFX and Clojure in the past. I found a neat little library called splendid on BitBucket that wrapped a few things, but nothing like seesaw. Also, I mainly was interested in it for its webkit-based WebView, but that turned out to be really crummy. I also didn't like that it wasn't in OpenJDK (thought I think that will change with Java 8).
I do remember being intrigued by the native packaging that JavaFX supposedly provides. Then I found a neat tool called JWrapper than seems to do the same thing, but for any Java application. Eventually I decided it may not be very secure to bundle a private JRE that I must worry about updating. Lastly, I'm not sold on installers at all; there's a nice simplicity to just running a jar file.
