Could you please describe here, in plain text, what further methods you
think you need?  For IP clarity any material you want this EG to consider
must be posted to this list or to related OpenJDK infrastructure.

It'd be fine to discuss specific code patches on jigsaw-dev, but again
you'd need to include it directly rather than point to GitHub.  This is
a design issue, though, so it's probably best to discuss it here first.
