what about OpenJDK with OpenJFX? Building by myself it's an overkill task (it requires Qt for Webkit), especially on more platforms. I think it's a pity there are no public available releases of OpenJDK with included JavaFX out there.

When Oracle will remove it in Java11, it would be even worse

I agree this is something which should be prioritized, but I don't necessarily think the answer should be to just provide pre-built binaries. I feel really uneasy about open source projects that are almost impossible to build by anyone by the authors - more work should go into making the build process less obscene.
