Ok, I see there is a broader context for my comment. I think then it makes sense to open a separate issue to specify these various RuntimePermission targets that are associated with deprecated APIs. In my mind, these permission targets are standard targets and should also be "deprecated" even if there is no annotation that can formally indicate that. For comparison, SecurityPermission puts these in a separate table in the class summary: https://download.java.net/java/early_access/jdk16/docs/api/java.base/java/security/SecurityPermission.html If you agree, I can file an issue. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/1318
