I had already suggested that here:
https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/19218#pullrequestreview-2076196539
Feel free to file an RFE. Maybe someone wants to work on it. I think it would 
not be that hard to make it work given all the code that is already there now. 
And it would be helpful in for both big/little endian to be able to do both 
orders.
