   - Will it break existed applications?
   - Is it a common case that some applications register resource 
bundles from JDK?
   - What is the reason that resource bundles from JDK are not supposed 
to be registered by external applications?
   - Is it applicable for all JDK bundles or it should be allowed to 
load bundles for public L&Fs like Metal and not for internal (Windows)?
   - Was there the similar issue before the modularization? For example 
an application is not supposed to load internal Java resource bundles if 
the security manager is set.

   Thanks,
   Alexandr.
