I think again that using interfaces may not be a good choice. "Trusted" should be specific to specific classes and cannot be inherited, because trusted methods can be overwritten by untrusted implementations in subclasses. I think maybe annotation is a better choice, but the cost needs to be tested. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/12212
