I agree with you - not only for that reason, but also because as others have pointed out the addition of the warning is really a separate task from the evaluation and triage of any existing leaks. Moreover, this latter task is really multiple separate tasks that belong to the various module/functional groups.

I'll remove all the Javadoc `@implNote`'s from the patch, and `src/java.base/share/classes/java/lang/doc-files/ThisEscape.html` as well - it will still be available in the git history if someone comes up with a better home for it.

This will also further reduce the number of labels and therefore required reviewers.

Thanks.
