Now that I got your attention, prepare for an email about how Scala
can't use invoke dynamic.
First let me introduce some background. Scala has structural subtyping
for refinement types. Simply put, one can define a type that has a set
of methods, which is a supertype of all types that contain all

For now, yes. I won't turn it off right away.

For now, I've put Dynamic into the JSR 292 javadoc with weasel words
about "language compilers" and suggested syntax
There is a separate project, sponsored by the JDK com
So java.dyn.Dynamic is now not used directly in the bytecode.
But it is used in the patched javac.
Is the way to call a 'dynamic' method is a part of JSR292 spec or not ?

It's another part of the spec that is outdated.
I don't know exactly why.
