Description

To reproduce:
(note insure JavaFX 2 plugin is active otherwise JavaFX>EmptyFXML is not available)

1. File >New Project >Java with Maven >FXML JavaFx Maven Archetype (Gluon) >....
2. File >New File > other > JavaFX > Empty FXML
3. Next
4. Checkbox Use Java Controllers
5. Put the controller in package "newpackage"
6. Finish

Notice that the file FXML.java in the editor shows an error

Class does not exist: newpackage.FXMLController

Things compile but if you try to use the new controller/fxml there is a runtime error.

 The problem is fixed by adding these lines to moduleinfo

        opens newpackage to javafx.fxml;
        exports newpackage;

This should be done automatically by the wizard.

Notice that after adding these lines, the editor error indication in the fxml file goes away.
