Please review the changes for this RFE to mark the java.security.acl API with 
forRemoval=true. The intention is to remove this API in JDK 10.

The APIs in java.security.acl were deprecated in 1.9 but have had the following 
warning in the package description for many releases:

"The classes and interfaces in this package have been superseded by classes in the 
java.security package. See that package and, for example, java.security.Permission for 
details."

Since there have been suitable replacements since 1.2, there is no reason to 
retain this package and it should be removed.

Should be @since=“9” rather than “1.9”.  Otherwise, looks okay.

Good catch.

Thanks,
Sean
