I should clarify my response that there's no time frame being set here for the actual removal
so there should be ample time to do that re-writing.

I actually counted almost 100 such open tests. You need to remember JApplet too.
And these open jtreg tests do not account for all of it by any means.

There are a couple of options - although I  think re-writing is the only truly viable one. But definitely re-working all of those is one thing that has to happen before this JEP can be integrated.
And of course submitted != targeted ..

I know it's not the standard browser usage, but I count 34 jtreg tests in open/test/jdk that contain `extends Applet`.

Do you have a sense of what you want to do with jtreg GUI tests that incidentally use Applet?
