      One important feature which is missing is a JavaFX native multiple document interface. I have successfully achieved this but I haven't yet created a class for the multiple document interface itself, but I have been able to produce a MDI successfully by doing the following.


      1. I create a ScrollPane which contains an AnchorPane and I assign the ScrollPane as the root of a Scene and maintain the AnchorPane for the purpose of adding internal windows.

      2. I created a Window class which extends Control, a skin class for the window class, and a behavior class for moving these child windows. The skin uses a Group rootNode which contains the border,titleBar,titleLabel, and contentPane. The contentPane is a scroll pane and the implementation is free to set the child of the content pane but not change the content pane.
