Mark, what is the plan for people with .jar files on their desktop who just
double click on them to run desktop applications? How will they know that
their upgrade to Java 9 broke the application and how to remedy the problem by
either getting a java-9 compatible version of the app (which will likely not be
available at Java-9 release), or that they need to roll back to some previous
version of Java until the application they are using is compatible with Java-9?
It seems like there is an awful lot of focus on command line solutions when
there is a whole class of users who do not use the command line.
I can't tell if you meant to reply to this thread or another thread but
I suspect you are asking about #AddExportsInManifest [1].
