Yes my concern there esp is around the way in which it breaks: subtle
change in behavior, not some obvious exception message (such as when
someone abuses an internal api). My coworker and I spent half a day
tracking down what was happening, and we at least have some knowledge
about what to look for.

So I just sense some trouble around this stuff for java 9: and some
users won't care if its jigsaw or a versioning change or whatever, it
just won't work for them.

I know its super-offtopic but this has been a great change.
