Right alignment of text fields and alignment of prompt text works incorrectly

FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
1.8.0_121-b13

ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
Tested on Xubuntu 16.04 and Mac OS-X.

EXTRA RELEVANT SYSTEM CONFIGURATION :
Nothing special

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
TextField setAlignment(Pos.BASELINE_RIGHT) should right align text. If the text is changed after the stage has been shown, the text left-aligns to the left edge of the previous text-field contents.

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Create a text field. Set alignment to Pos.BASELINE_RIGHT. Set text in the text field to be something short. Show the stage. Change the text to a long string: note that the long string is left-aligned to a point in the middle of the text field

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
If Post.BASELINE_RIGHT is set, the text should always be right-aligned.
ACTUAL -
The text is left-aligned to a point in the middle of the text field.

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.

CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
After setting the text, change the alignment to Pos.BASELINE_LEFT, then change it back to Pos.BASELINE_RIGHT
