[8u-dev] Request for approval for JDK-8151731: Add new jtreg keyword to jdk 8

[Seán Coffey]

Svetlana, does it make sense to introduce such keywords without 
modifying the tests that need them ? i.e. should 8078334 be backported ?

It would be nice to get such keywords documented in a OpenJDK wiki 
somewhere. (if one exists, please add to master record) I see a 
reference to some mail threads in the master record but that's not a 
substitute for docs IMO.

Regards,
Sean.
