Note that `sealed` already has a meaning in the context of packages (see 
Package.isSealed()), though it is minor.

Is there a different hyphenation of final other than semi-final that maintains 
the connection to finality, but doesn’t weird people out?  (One thing I dislike 
about sealed / non-sealed is that now we have _contextual_ keywords with 
hyphens, which wasn’t the discipline we were aiming for in the hyphenation 
proposal.)
