> @eirbjo, either of the intended or unintended effects of the PR on their own would merit a CSR and this is a case where the inclusive-OR applies so a CSR is definitely needed; thanks.

Thanks Joe!

 A CSR has been proposed and is ready for the first round of feedback: https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8323583
