I'm wondering if there will be future support for sound in Fantom. I worked a bit with the sound API in Java and have to say that was a terrible experience. Personally, creating a sound by taking a URI as a parameter and then have a play() method would be enough and save a lot of pain. I'm not sure if that's feasible, but I'm still wondering if this API has come up in discussion. Eventually, projects will arise that require sound so this will be needed then.

Last time I checked, the Java media APIs were really bad. Maybe they fixed them for JavaFX?
