Thank you for writing up your experience!

I have done a ton of Swing over the years, and also a 2.5D zoomable scene graph API called Piccolo2D [0], which was one of the inspirations for JavaFX (or so I heard at the time).

As far as your advice, I will take a look at swapping Batik out for EchoSVG, and also see how you tackled the user data directory issue in KeenWrite.
