I've added my name as a reviewer of the CSR.

As for the test, I think it makes sense to serialize the object in an old JDK, hardcode the bytes in a new test and try to deserialize it, and make sure it equals to an object that is freshly constructed.

For the opposite direction, one can write a test in the JDK 17 repo that deserializes a byte array "from the future". This sounds fascinating but probably not worth doing.
