So probably right now it is better to update the spec of that flag. To workaround that change the fix for [JDK-8194873](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8194873) updated all our L&F which are used on windows, obviously the Aqua was missed. I think we should update the Aqua in a similar way. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/9230
