The proposed change could be made, but it is not just a spec
change. All JVMs that don't currently conform to the spec would need
to change, as Rémi Forax notes, and that includes the JDK and its
derivatives. I'm not a HotSpot expert but my guess is that there's
some pretty sensitive code involved that the HotSpot team might be
reluctant to go poking around in.
*hmpf* There's some code out there which relies on source code order
of members (it's not just Preon). Hotspot appears close enough to
guaranteeing it that programmers make this assumption
The solution is to not rely on reflection and to parse the bytecode
using by example ASM :
