Hi Peter,
Thanks, that’s interesting. I am uncertain if our 166 fellows will be
reluctant or not to pull in a dependency on jdk.internal.misc.SharedSecrets.
Background: we are reluctant to rely on anything that makes sources impossible
to use in (usually, upcoming versions of) Android. Which probably
doesn't directly apply here.
But my main concern in this case is that we need better assurance
that there are no possible start-up circularities, since we've already
had some near-miss experiences with ThreadLocalRandom. Is there a
solid argument?
