I'm concerned about the possible loss of the packager service, i.e. the 
UserJvmOptionsService class and associated underlying machinery in the 
jpackager.

Background:

I'm developing and maintaining an internal GUI tool for log analysis.

It reads, parses and aggregates data from many different kinds of logs from our 
production systems. The amount of memory needed to process all the data can 
vary quite a lot from run to run, so I've found it very convenient to utilise 
the UserJvmOptionsService to enable my users to set and manage the JVM settings 
of the JVM-bundled application created by javapackager.

As far as I know, the javapackager, and the packager services, were omitted 
from JDK 11. While I can still use the javapackager of JDK 10 to package a JDK 
11 application, I don't see how I could use the packager services, since they 
are not present. neither in JDK 11 nor in openjfx 11.

I would like to suggest the UserJvmOptionsService, or equivalent, be retained 
in the successor tool, jpackager.

Best regards,
