Better Launchers for Jlink images

Hello,

(I noticed changes to the Tests to remove FX Launcher have been discussed here. So Maybe it is the Right list to ask: are there plans to provide better launchers (especially for Windows) with Jlink?)

The Java packager/FX have binaries which are a bit better to use as launhers than the rather rudimentary scripts created by jlink plugins.

It would be really great if one can produce launchers which carry main module/class Information some Default Parameters, allow modifications to resourcestrings and Icons and are sign-able to make a Windows stand alone application Image with an actual nice EXE to start and register. (This follows from JNLP deprecation I think).

Whats the state of that and where it would be discussed?

Gruss
Bernd
