[This issue was split from RT-2694... See testcase attached to that bug report.]

In prior versions of JavaFX, shape composition was also possible using the Path class, i.e in addition to path commands, Shapes were also "PathElements", and could be inserted into a Path to compose a larger Shape. This mechanism is supported in the underlying Java2D implementation, and provides a significant usability improvement for many use-cases, instead of ShapeSubtract.
