A colleague suggested that I should clarify that the `blessed-modifier-order.sh` script that I used is available in the JDK repo at https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blob/01105d6985b39d4064b9066eab3612da5a401685/bin/blessed-modifier-order.sh. That script was contributed by Martin Buchholz in JDK-8136656 in 2015.
