I initially left the description vague, so that the behavior could be more easily amended. But, on second thought, such changes would seemingly require no less review, so I think it's better to include a description, as suggested. I've updated the description to say the following: \ --validate Validate a jar. This process will validate that the API\n\ \ exported by a multi-release jar is consistent across all\n\ \ different release versions. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/3971
