The JEP with the API refresh is submitted with a view to getting it onto 
the technical roadmap. Too many other JEPs were also trying to get onto 
the technical roadmap around the same time and several (including this 
one) didn't get onto the roadmap in time. Hopefully next release. It's 
nothing to do JEP 486.

As regards the naming it came from Future.State when this API changed 
from returning a Future to Subtask for the first preview.
