> Can I please get a review of this change which proposes to deprecate for removal the  `-Xdebug` option and `-debug` option of the `java` command? This addresses https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8227229.
> 
> As noted in the JBS issue this option is currently a no-op and has been there only for backward compatible since even Java 8 days.
