The spec looks okay except that it will need to be adjusted once we get 
the changes for JDK-8201315 into jdk/jdk. If we get that in then the 
paragraph on when interestOpsXXX can be called will change to:

"This method may be invoked at any time.  If this method is invoked 
while a selection operation is in progress then it has no effect upon 
that operation; the change to the key's interest set will be seen by 
the  next selection operation."
