The existing documentation of Method.isBridge isn't terribly helpful to the reader. This RFE proposes to given a common example of how bridge methods are used. The JLS does *not* have a section discussing bridge methods in detail; bridge methods are a compilation technique for lowering the Java language to the JVM, they are not a language feature per se. The example given is not exhaustive; there can be and are other uses of bridge methods.
