The sequence looks mostly fine, to the level of detail that is given. I 
agree that once you're past langtools, the build should use hybrid javac.

I was surprised to see "langtools" and "stripprop" mentioned in close 
proximity. langtools uses compileproperties, not strip properties. But  
that is not a Jigsaw issue, it is either a typo, or an artifact of new 
build that needs to be fixed.
