The current restrictions placed on JavaFX 2 projects hampers development, many users find it inconvenient, annoying and restrictive. The deployment mode(s) are not absolutely static as evidenced by the jdk 7 beta optional application packaging offered. The developer should be considered as being capable of taking this in to consideration independently of the development whenever possible and the IDE should facilitate maximal freedom to develop projects speedily. In this case the restrictions are totally unnecessary and the project functionality should be restored to that prior to the RC1 for 7.2, that is normal single file execution etc.
OK, the Run File functionality had been restricted in reaction to requests summarized in issue #212473, however, I agree the change has proved to be more negative than positive. Therefore we are going to rollback it.
