Ahh, should have read your mail more carefully. You are not only
interested in a flexible alignment within the parent - but also
to depend on own child bounds/parameters. 

The new JavaFX provides something like this by using the
"bind" keyword.

See http://weblogs.java.net/blog/aim/archive/2009/01/layout_primer_f.html
in section "Using Binding to Layout Nodes"
