The latest JDK 9 does have the updated proposal for 
#ResourceEncapsulation and ResourceBundle has been updated to align with 
that proposal.

You mention Bean Validation. Does this mean the properties file is in 
META-INF? If so then it will not be encapsulated because "META-INF" is 
not a legacl package name.
