Since 8u72 an edited value is also set on focus lost. It looks like a focus listener is internally used to commit the value. However, if a user installs a focus listener to process some value action this listener is called before the value is set (through the focus listener of the control/skin). Means #getValue() fails in this case and returns the old value. The behavior is similar to releases before 8u72 when focus is lost without committing a value by pressing the Enter key.
One would argue to observe the valueProperty instead. However, there are scenarios where it's required to commit the value before all listeners get notified - i. e. if a user requires value validation triggered on focus lost.
