E.g. How are read, IO_Read, and JVM_Read supposed to differ? Where's the interface doc? Many years ago I filed http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4904617 that remains unaddressed :-( Perhaps as part of this change or set of changes, that bug could be dealt with? Perhaps even by deleting JVM_Read?
