Support for RadioMenuItems
It would be very nice to have support for CheckMenuItem and RadioMenuItem to allow users to toggle select in the tray icon menu.
@azplanlos - This is an interesting suggestion ... however, this won't work, and here is why...
JavaFX MenuItems are CONVERTED over to an AWT framework before they are added to the FXTrayIcon popup menu. And since they technically are not rendered as JavaFX objects, there is no hope of implementing a full-flavored JavaFX object within FXTray Icon.
Maybe one day, JavaFX will actually support the System Tray, but until that day comes, this is the best we got.
I implemented a version supporting CheckMenuItems and will create a pull request shortly.

@azplanlos - can't wait to see how you did it ... my experience with AWT is about on par with my lifetime skydiving hours ... which equates to about 20 minutes ... ☺
@azplanlos , I'm with @EasyG0ing1, I'm fairly versed with JavaFX, but my prior experience with AWT going into the development of this library leaves much to be desired. I look forward to your pull request, and am eager to see your new development. Thank you tons for your contribution!
