My rationale for a potential preview is that we changed 
`-Xlint:dangling-doc-comments` as `///` is now dangling doc comment. Is this 
considered a Java programming language change? There were some community 
comments objecting the use of `///` for markdown documentation, and called for 
alternative syntaxes like `/*markdown */`.
