Target this deprecation-for-removal enhancement, including adding the needed base class methods from the two subclasses that are being deprecated, to JavaFX 23. This would be done first, as soon as we settle on the new base class methods. 2. Proceed with [JDK-8322964](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8322964) / PR #1316 . 3. Later, probably in JavaFX 24, proceed with [JDK-8323706](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8323706) / PR #1333 to remove SimpleSelector and CompoundSelector from the public API (by moving them to an internal package). ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jfx/pull/1340#issuecomment-1908313239
