The following JEP is proposed to target JDK 19:

  428: Structured Concurrency (Incubator)
       https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/428

  Summary: Simplify multithreaded programming by introducing a library
  for structured concurrency. Structured concurrency treats multiple
  tasks running in different threads as a single unit of work, thereby
  streamlining error handling and cancellation, improving reliability,
  and enhancing observability. This is an incubating API.

Feedback on this proposal from JDK Project Committers and Reviewers [1]
is more than welcome, as are reasoned objections.  If no such objections
are raised by 23:59 UTC on Thursday, 2 June, or if they’re raised and
then satisfactorily answered, then per the JEP 2.0 process proposal [2]
I’ll target this JEP to JDK 19.
