That table is useful, I think it's right. No change to default behavior. If someone configures with --enable-runtime-image then they get a JDK run-time image that supports jlink (with some limitations) but is significantly small as it doesn't include the packaged modules.

I've read through most of the changes now. Overall I think it's looking good, just a few terminology and minor points that I'll add as comments.
