Hi Joe, I've read your reply, and I apologise for any offence my inquiry has caused.
My intent was only to ask for information. I would now like to refocus on the bug at hand. Do you, or Mandy, have a position in regards to the response I sent a few days ago? https://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/core-libs-dev/2019-March/059191.html Also, I have read the guide (finally), and I see the tests should have a bug tag. I'll add that now, in a versioned webrev.
