An update on this. We have not found any widespread use of this API
The expectation (nascent plan) is that this package will not be carried
forward into the modular JDK. I suppose it is possible some new JEP may
revive it as a standard API for in JDK 10 but there is no plan for that.

That seems reasonable.
The question of whether the Java platform should play nicely with power
management and whether threadpools are the right abstraction for that is a
worthy one but keeping this little known API around isn't going to solve that.
In any case there's always my own implement
