Have been reporting variants (and ranting and suggesting fixes) for
ages ... and now seeing that some of those reports got tagged
"nicetohave" ... doooohhh
Jeanette,
You are misinterpreting the 'nicetohave' label as a negative. The actual
fact is that the 'nicetohave' label is applied to issues that we want to
fix for JDK 9, but were too low priority in their current state and
therefore would by default have been retargeted away from JDK 9.
In other words, I purposefully added 'nicetohave' to a lot of the
selection model issues I have assigned to me, so that I can try my very
best to get them fixed in JDK 9. The alternative would have been to have
them be retargeted away.
Perhaps we should have called the label 'savefromrelegation'.
