I'm sure that's right. However, we are also running the risk of
breaking important use cases when JDK9 is released. We're going to
have to do a lot of work with developers to make sure that they can
still work with JDK9. The problem is that many developers do not even
try to run with a new JDK until that JDK is released. So, we have to
make sure that we have enough escape hatches.
In this case, then -XaddExports should work as an escape hatch if really
needed.
In the mean-time then we can see if there is way forward on this that
doesn't introduce security or memory leak concerns.
