Yes, just to be clear: I would like to remove lib/jdk9plus, and provide spec 
features "only".

+1, jdk9plus should disappear to make karaf frictionless IMHO

[PROPOSAL] Introduce spec features to simplify users experience

[Jean-Baptiste Onofre]

Hi guys,

Several users reported issues with JDK 9+ about spec packages.

Users are struggling about spec packages since JDK 9+ and "classic" questions 
are:

- who’s provide the package ?
- should I use spec bundles and where they are located ?
- should I change bin/karaf to use —add-module ?
- should I use lib/jdk9plus and update etc/jre.properties ?

IMHO, the always preferred approach should be spec bundles.

To improve users experience with JDK9+, I would like to create a new features 
repository: spec.
This features repository XML will provide spec feature (JAXB, JAXP, …) that 
other projects and users can leverage.
It would reduce the coupling with JDK packages and a straight forward usage.

Thoughts ?

JB
