I'm not a RMI enthusiast 😁, but I want to use jhsdb with debug server.

In container infrastructure especially Kubernetes, we cannot use SSH because most of containers do not run ssh server. In addition, we might not access worker node directly. Thus debug server is important I think.

I think jhsdb users want to dive into native layer includes JVM and C runtime, so JDI is not suitable I think.

Totally agree with removing RMI from JDK tools, but I think we should replace remote debugging feature with other technology.
