Unfortunately, it would be too disruptive to change the decades old behavior.

I analyzed the usage of toLowerCase and toUpperCase in OpenJDK more carefully,  and found that none of the use cases really expected locale-sensitive behavior

I expected that as there were a number of passes over these use-sites over the years. That said, if some of the remaining usages can be changed to specify the locale then it would avoid others puzzling over them too. Changing them probably needs careful review so changing them in specific areas or in smaller batches would make it easier for potential Reviewers.

In any case, I agree with Rémi that changing the existing methods is too subtle and maybe it's time to look at no-arg replacements.
