I think that's normal.  I don't think it would be a good idea, in 
general, for the installer to add everything in the JDK to your regular 
path.  Could mess stuff up good.

I recall I normally have to tell my IDE that JavaFX is a library and 
point the IDE at the javafx.jar file manually for each project.
