Going down this route, I would avoid 'consumes' since IMO it appears to be the inverse of 'provides' used with services. Also, the the proposed 'contains' seems to be equivalent to what is now called 'conceals' (when looking at output of for example `java -listmods:java.base`), which I find to be more descriptive. Or did you mean that 'contains' replaces 'exports dynamic'? In that case, I don't really see how that's any clearer.
