If not possible at all now you have to engage with JDT team by opening bug
describing what you need and maybe even come up with patch to expose it as
API from JDT. With the ever increasing cadence and limited resources this
is the only way to achieve stability in the release train. If dependent
projects just use internals without getting in contact with their
dependency to get what they need exposed as API these breakages are
inevitable. Internal packages are internal for a reason and there is no way
to know that someone is using your internals if there isn't at least a bz
describing what/why/how.
FWIW, to encourage people to engage with the project in Linux Tools project
we intentionally removed internal packages from export package list so the
only viable path becomes exposing API.
