That's rather limiting. Here's what we're already using: * java.compiler: annotation processing (could potentially be split, but this situation is already confusing enough for users) * java.management: JMX * java.naming: JNDI * java.scripting: javascript/groovy/etc plugins * java.xml: XML configuration parsing
I may have missed some others, but it may be difficult to trim it down to just java.base. Even with some of the simpler ones, we'll end up with several additional modules to detangle that. If we could include multiple logical modules in a single physical module, then this wouldn't be as tedious.
