OK, I will see in the future, hoping only that Valhalla will build more
on less on current Java8 features/ideas, like pluggable type system (JSR
308) concepts, to avoid explosion in the number of identifiers in type
system (replaced by aggregation of optional features required by caller
around the class identifier).
In practice, I only hope, for simplicity of Java, that Java 9 will not
add two new classes (with corresponding new identifiers) for each common
class: by example, for List<Object>, will not add a value type like
List<int> and an observable type like ObservableList<Object> (if JavaFX
JSR is in Java9).
I wish you a good focus on design and build and shut my mouth.
