Probably the IM is just a faster, more compact way to make something you could also have made by spinning MH's together. If someone figures out what an IM can do that you can't also do with MethodHandles.* methods, I'm very eager to hear about it. (And I'll probably want to take it away, or else add a new MHs API point.) Mainly, an IM gives you control over packaging and backtrace structure.
how would throwing and catching exceptions behave there? Can I do these without showing the IM on the trace? Because... unless it got changed in the meantime... using a MethodHandle that does catch Exceptions introduces a trace element (and quite the speed penalty)
