I was told that the changes are "mostly fine" without any indication of what is wrong.  I am reluctant to spend yet more time, only to later (maybe weeks later, as has already happened) find out that I still have to do something else or that all my effort was wasted.

Hi @mernst, sorry if this is how it appears. Pull requests that involve changes spanning a large set of files are notoriously harder to review since they require a reviewer from each different area to chime in. Basically you will need one reviewer from each of these areas:

-     client
-     compiler
-     core-libs
-     hotspot
-     i18n
-     javadoc
-     jmx
-     net
-     nio
-     security
-     serviceability

Jaikiran suggested to reduce the scope of this PR in his first comment:
https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/10029#issuecomment-1236588632

as did several other reviewers. Sorry if the meaning (or reason) was not clear.

best regards,
