Regarding the agent — who is ready to add such an agent to their application to manage module directives and present it to the community?
Well, there is already one example of an agent that manages access to module private code which is widely in use by the community. On JDK9+ Byteman allows injected code to access methods that are not exported by modules, using the module open APIs provided to class Instrumentation. It does so using its own module layer and associated controller. It is also implemented to behave compatibly on JDK8 where it achieves the same outcome using reflection. Most notably, on JDK9+ Byteman avoids exposing those unexported methods to anything other than the injected code.
