Some controls can only be created on the FX application thread

http://download.oracle.com/javafx/2.0/api/javafx/application/Application.html#init%28%29 states:
  "NOTE: This method is not called on the JavaFX Application Thread. An application must not construct a Scene or a Stage in this method. An application may construct other JavaFX objects in this method."

However, some JavaFX controls can only be constructed on the JavaFX Application Thread.

Perhaps this is as designed, and only clarification of documentation as specified in RT-16918 is required.

Sample test case:

import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.scene.control.*;
import javafx.scene.web.WebView;
import javafx.stage.Stage;

public class InitThreadTest extends Application {
    public static void main(String[] args) { Application.launch(args); }
    @Override public void init() throws Exception {
        new Button();
        try { new WebView(); } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); }
        try { new Tooltip(); } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); }
        try { new ContextMenu(); } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); }
    }
    @Override public void start(Stage s) { System.exit(0); }
}

Output of code is =>
