Ensemble8 uses setAccessible to access methods and fields of various classes

      Description

        The PlaygroundTab.update method in Ensemble8 uses setAccessible to access methods and fields of various classes. It does this blindly, both on application classes (which is fine), and on JavaFX classes (which is not good practice), without any indication as to whether it is needed.

        This is not a good practice so the setAccessible calls should be removed. If any loss of functionality occurs we will need to evaluate the impact.
