      JavaFX does not exit cleanly on the Mac platform due to RT-15032 and RT-15599. A complete fix for these bugs may be difficult. In the mean time, this is seriously impacting app developers. As a workaround, we could add the following logic to the standalone application launcher on Mac:

          if (isMac && !keepAlive) {
              if (error) { ex.printStackTrace(); }
              System.exit(0);
          }

      where keepAlive is set based on a System property, for example: -Djavafx.keepalive=true
