New JEP: Javac intrinsics for LDC and INVOKEDYNAMIC

Indeed.  We hope this will take some pressure off of bootstrapping.

Yes.  Added to JEP.

Might be worth a quick mention without getting the paint and brushes out. I suspect it in some cases a CE could be extended to that returned from a Intrinics.lcd call (if javac can track it within the compilation unit), although that probably has less value.

There's room to use target-typing on Class literals to allow them to 
both have a standalone type of Class but target-typing could allow them 
to represent a ClassConstant.  This has the potential to streamline the 
use a lot, but we haven't worked out all the details.

Also i think it’s worth stating in the summary that the focus of this library is as you say for the advanced developer without being an attractive nuisance to the majority of Java developers.
Added to non-goals.
