OK, so maybe we've established what could be done - a new method on
ClassLoader that would initially not work on implementations outside
the JDK.
So, there is a functionality gap here, but I'm guessing no particular
desire to make a change.
I don't see this as a gap as there is no support for making new classes
visible via the class path either. As I think we've concluded, doing so
would require extending the ClassLoader API and would require all custom
implementations to support it.
