Bumping this thread. From the peanut gallery, I believe that Rémi's
change is extremely worthy. I have more nitpicking I'd like to do on
it, but am holding off until we learn whether Sun would accept it in

At this point, it's still very mysterious to me how this will work
(small, simple new APIs being added to core libraries via openjdk).
I agree it's worth continuing this. As you said, it's one of those
things that almost everyone has written many times.
Mark sent out a link a few days ago to a draft process for jdk7
development [1]. I assume in time this will detail the process for
reviewing API additions and replacing the current (Sun-internal) CCC
process.
