I was looking at the existing JDK 9 issues for some simple ones I could solve and found this one. I wanted to know if it makes sense to add additional constructors here?

Now you need to do this:
------------------------
try {
  new PrintWriter(file, "UTF-8");
} catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
  // Ignore, this is required to be supported by the JVM.
}

The same applies also to the String constructor...



Instead the following behaviour is requested:
---------------------------------------------
new PrintWriter(file, StandardCharsets.UTF_8));



On the other hand then the next request will be to add constructors also to specify autoflush and so on...
