Thanks.

Yes, that option name is a marginal improvement on the name in the VHs sandbox repo :-)


> On @modules then it would be good to add to get @modules java.base/jdk.internal.misc on any tests using the rehoused Unsafe. That makes it easier the jake forest is sync'ed up. If there are tests using sun.misc.Unsafe then @modules isn't needed. If there are tests with @modules java.base/sun.misc then we'll do a bulk update once the separation is complete.
