My thinking is that a particular preference should be useful and almost universally supported on the desktop platforms to make it into JavaFX API. The number of preferences we might consider are pretty limited, so I don't expect `Platform.Preferences` to explode in size and scope. I think this is a minor addition that doesn't change anything substantial about `Platform.Preferences`, and as such doesn't need a major discussion since the arguments are basically the same since the introduction of platform preferences. However, if you or others are interested in having a discussion, we can of course do that. ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jfx/pull/1618#issuecomment-2450541522
