I don't like the fact that --enable-native-access will behave differently with java and jshell,
in fact, it's worst, for jshell, --enable-native-access and -R--enable-native-access will behave differently.

For me, either "--enable-native-access" is a valid syntax and in case both  java and jshell should support it,
or the shortcut to use the unnamed module does not worth the cost and in that case, it should not be implemented.
