> Do I get the comment right, and jpackage will modify the image supplied with `--runtime-image` parameter? This is wrong. jpackage must not modify any externally supplied files/directories unless this is app image signing on macos.

Yes, you get the comment right. We do sign runtime image as well (same as app image). We do ad-hoc signing for runtime image if signing is not requested. Ad-hoc signing will modify runtime image. I think you mean case when "--app-image" and "--runtime-image" is specified, then yes we should not modify it, but when we packaging just runtime it will be modify due to signature. I will update test to reflect it.
