Sorry David I should have clarified this a bit. The changes currently in this draft PR are merely what occurred to Alex and me while we were working on JLS 12.8. There are a bunch of other issues that need to be covered or at clarified clarified here, or possibly in the Runtime class specification. I'll add them to the bug report, and eventually we'll update this PR with further changes.

Discussion of the changes in this PR are taking place in the bug report:
