This sounds great. My only comment involves this statement: " Casts and instanceof checks are accomplished by adding a flag to JCastOperation and JInstanceOf to allow a non-null, non-Java-derived (i.e.o.typeMarker$ != nullMethod) object to pass the type checks. Additional methods are added to the Cast utility class and CastNormalizerupdated." I believe based on reading this, but wanted to verify, that the 'flag' exists only in the compiler (not the compiled code) and different exact variants of dynamicCast/instanceOf are called at runtime.
