Hi,

I'd like to get a working OpenJDK/OpenJFX 11 runtime for Java FX 
applications. The last time I looked was with Java 8 when there still 
were pre-built overlays available, but those days are gone by. Nowadays, 
I seem to be required to download and install OpenJFX to a different 
location and change all my batch scripts to use the module path, see 
https://openjfx.io/openjfx-docs/#install-javafx.

Is that really so? Or can I somehow (perhaps via environment variables) 
configure OpenJDK 11 to be so liberal as to load OpenJFX using just the 
classpath, and include the OpenJFX jars in a place where they are found 
automatically?
