Some customers want to observe which loaded classes have overridden the finalize() method. I found that VM.metaspace can output detailed classes. It seems feasible to add 'f' flag to it. With this patch, I found that ZipFileSystem left a finalize after applying this patch, which was obsolete 5 years ago, maybe we should remove it?
