Hi Brian,
Makes sense to me; simple, direct and easy to explain.

Subject: [9] RFR JDK-8068373: (prefs) FileSystemPreferences writes \0 to XML
storage, causing loss of all preferences

Hello,
Based on previous discussions this thread which used to be an RFC is now an
RFR. Thanks to Paul and Roger for comments.
Issue: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8068373
Patch: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~bpb/8068373/webrev.04/
Historical variants may be seen here: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~bpb/8068373/
One problem (or not) with this approach is that old FileSystemPreferences
caches which already contain U+0000 will still cause a failure on reading in
Java 9+ but perhaps we do not care.
Thanks,
Brian
