So, the easier way out would be enable TrustFinalNonStaticFields to be used with finer-grained control, that JEP 165 (Compiler Control) provides. Then you can tell which user-side classes/packages are safe for trusting, and which are not. IIRC, the reason why TrustFinalNonStaticFields is not on by default is because we cannot rely that everyone is not writing to final fields and expecting update to be visible. ...which makes this one partially go away: > It seems odd that the much more aggressive facility > (TrustFinalNonStaticFields) is simpler to > use than a more targeted one.
