This is not really valuable options IMO

Breaks more than changing almost no API - meaning of beta is "we are almost
there".

Basically means it doesnt exist.

FYI we use jcs in tomee as jcache implementation - no api risk - and needed
to fork it to be able to release. This maybe means JCS is now no more a
single API delivery which makes things more complex.

That said, and on another topic, the rule of commons on changing packages
shouldnt apply on alpha and beta otherwise this way of working doesnt make
any sense anymore (= no way to get feedback since people know they will be
fully broken anyway and not just a bit or not fully implemented).
