StackedAreaChart throws ClassCastException if x-axis uses string categories

Apparently, a StackedAreaChart expects Number as x-axis type. A ClassCastException occurs when using a CategoryAxis. After this the scene is frozen (inside a JFXPanel).

I don't see a reason why the stacked area chart would require numbers on the x-axis while the regular area chart does not. So, preferable it should work with a CategoryAxis as well. Otherwise, it makes sense to document the limitation and probably throw an IllegalArgumentException when trying to use an unsupported axis.
