The qualified exports are done using reflection to the calling module

is in the unnamed module). I plan to file a follow-on bug to tighten
the integrity checks, which may or may not include requiring it to be
in a module named "javafx.swt", depending on whether all of the use
cases can be done with javafx-swt.jar being loaded in a named module
(e.g., Mandy's recommendation of using the Layer API).
Okay and using addExports is really the only way this will work when
javafx.swt is a child layer.
As regards the mixing of code in named modules and unnamed modules then
it should work fine. javafx.swt will read all modules in the boot layer.
Code this module will also link to SWT types and for that to work then
they must be visible by means of its class loader. The simplest is to
just specify that loader as the parent class loader when creating the
child layer.
