Adding to Peter's description - separating this patch from JEP 416 will give some bake time on this change of the existing core reflection implementation. When JEP 416 is integrated, it will switch the new implementation and the changes in `*AccessorImpl` will not be exercised. In addition, this will make the backport easier if desirable. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/5694
