If the mandated status of a class/member was to be reified in the class
file, then you would need Core Reflection and Language Model APIs to
expose that status, along the lines of isSynthetic.

Thank you, Alex!
I created an issue to track this:
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8251375
I'm not sure about the component. I set 'javac', though it also
touches JLS and JVMS; hopefully, no actual changes in HotSpot are
necessary as HotSpot can happily ignore this flag.
I tried to formulate proposed changes in JLS and JVMS right in the
issue. For now, I omit fields from the discussion because supporting
fields isn't critical for my applications.
But it's also ok to extend this to fields.
What else can I do to move this forward?
With best regards,
