JDK-8267108 doesn't mention any existing getSubject/doAs methods will be changed to throw UnsupportedOperationException, would be great if that can be documented as well, if I hadn't seen the change in the mailing list I would have missed it. Just helps track related changes.
The warning at compile time that the API is deprecated for removal should help when compiling with recent JDK releases.
When JDK-8267108 introduced new/replacement APIs then the details/time-line for when the old/problematic APIs would be degraded was not known.
JDK 23 (or whatever release the current change goes into) will have documentation on the change in the release.
