In terms of a future enhancement, I can't really see us put in a lot of work just for one pathological use case. Discarding this feature will probably put it in the "never" category. On the other hand, there's a whole category of pseudo-classes that are unrepresentable right now in JavaFX, as they basically depend on a formula, like `nth-child(2n+1)`. But that's just speculation at this point. ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jfx/pull/1652#issuecomment-2581067203
