> Custom module layers allow for lazy loading, late binding, and full customization of module dependencies through the `Controller` API. However, it is not possible for custom layer users to late-bind services, which has prevented some popular application containers from moving to use Java modules.
> 
> Add an API to `ModuleLayer.Controller` to allow adding `uses` and `provides` relationships after a module has been defined for custom layers.
