   to elaborate a bit: since we essentially need static bytecode injection for 
the purpose of patching (to swap out a method essentially), verification would 
be conceptually easy, since all it would have to proof is that the emitted 
bytecode matches javac bytecode. I tested this 
[here](https://github.com/mbien/agentclippy/blob/master/src/test/java/dev/mbien/agentclippy/AgentClippyTest.java)
 ([mail](https://lists.apache.org/thread/b8xfk6omk9g0yqsf0lj9zps9scydjfy9)). 
But since this is hopefully only needed until the JDK is patched and the agent 
would also disable itself on failure (+ option to edit the launch config), I 
think this is good to go. (thats why I approved - there is also no time left 
for changes)
