I'm skimmed over this and it mostly looks okay. I'm not sure that I agree that JDK-8039007 is a bug, this is really just that it is missing @jdk.Exported as you noted in PlatformClassPath.

I think the right way to do is to add @jdk.Exported in javax.jnlp. I'll follow up with deploy and check if they can annotate the exported APIs in 8u40; if so, I can take this special case out from jdeps.

The -filter options are useful but at the same time I have a concern that the number of options to jdeps is growing.

I shared the same concern. I had the -filter option in my first version of jdeps but I didn't include it in the first push to jdeps. Currently jdeps doesn't provide an easy way to find all package-level dependencies as it always excludes the dependencies from the same JAR/archive. Both cases are useful for developers in order to understand what APIs a library/app is using. I think -filter option provides a convenient way to specify what to be filtered rather than listing the packages in -p or -e options. Do you have any other suggestion to avoid adding -filter option?
