However, my feedback is that the -listmods option is confusing. An
option called "list" is something I expect to list all things, not to
be clever and only show some subset. At the very least, I consider it
vital for there to be a tool (preferably java.exe) that can list *all*
available modules given a module path. Maybe the current -listmods
should be renamed to -applicationmods or -initialmods, or split to
-listmods:app and -listmods:all ? (Being able to list everything
available feels like module 101).
I think you have a point. The -listmods option lists the modules in the
boot layer when it might more understandable if it simply listed all
observable modules and just exited like java -version. We'll need to
think about this.
