Let me try that again...

There are some properties passed to the VM (by dtjava.js) that change the default \
toolkit, but those would only be relevant for web deployment. Java Packager does \
produce html and JNLP files so it's possible that's what it's for.

Actually, you can pass -J-Djnlp.tk=jfx to javaws and it will start with the FX \
toolkit and avoid the relaunch.
