I will do that, but a larger question remains:

Are any of the AWT classes currently reported by jdeps as “JDK internal API” 
going to be accessible in JDK 9?

I ask because of this comment by Stuart Marks:

Unfortunately, com.sun is a mixture of internal and publicly supported 
("exported") APIs. An annotation @jdk.Exported distinguishes the latter from 
internal APIs.

Who decides which APIs get this annotation? Are these annotations in place now?
