There's nothing in the JLS by that name however, section 4.5 Parameterized
Types, might be close to what I'm looking for.
Even in a single inheritance system, resolving methods and types is a
multi-dimensional process.
I still say that by not allowing private inner classes, resolving this issue
would be much easier (or providing the access methods in the parent class of
the private internal class would work also ... calling getChildren() really is
a dependency on the underlying classes implementation which I really don't
understand why is declared private and not accessible. There has to be a good
reason otherwise it should be changed or eliminated [get rid of inner classes]).

I'd suggest taking a look at the Java Language specification and JVM
specification for details.
