JEP proposed to target JDK 20: 432: Record Patterns (Second Preview)

[Mark Reinhold]

The following JEP is proposed to target JDK 20:

  432: Record Patterns (Second Preview)
       https://openjdk.org/jeps/432

  Summary: Enhance the Java programming language with record patterns to
  deconstruct record values.  Record patterns and type patterns can be
  nested to enable a powerful, declarative, and composable form of data
  navigation and processing.  This is a preview language feature.

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 Wednesday, 23 November, 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 20.
