Hi @cl4es,
> Some of these changes conflict with #2334, which suggest removing the `coder` and `isLatin1` methods from `String`.

I've checked out Aleksey's branch and applied my changes onto it, the only thing that I changed to make it work is replacing
public boolean isLatin1(String str) {
    return str.isLatin1();
}
with
public boolean isLatin1(String str) {
    return str.coder == String.LATIN1;
}
The rest of the code was left intact. `jdk:tier1` is OK after the change.
> As a more general point I think it would be good to explore options that does not increase leakage of the implementation detail that `Strings` are latin1- or utf16-encoded outside of java.lang.

Apart from `JavaLangAccess` the only thing that comes to my mind is reflection, but it will destroy all the improvement. Otherwise I cannot figure out any other way to access somehow package-private latin/non-latin functionality of `j.l.String` in `java.util` package. I wonder, whether I'm missing any other opportunities?
