The platform preferences API is an abstraction, and nowhere do we specify that it replicates the exact stream of OS events. What we _do_ (implicitly) specify, however, is that the observable state of platform preferences accurately reflects the OS settings. Do you really think that it is okay for an application to be able to observe inconsistent transient states? In this example, applications can observe inconsistent `foregroundColor` and `backgroundColor` values. > If, however, the application requirements call for no delay, this change > makes it impossible. An application can require all it wants, but "inconsistent transient states are okay" is not an acceptable trade-off. There's no delay for uncorrelated changes, which is as good as it gets. ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jfx/pull/1810#issuecomment-2884831530
