Good idea, but since this involves a change in the public APIs and needs extra care with API specification, you should do this in a dependent PR (target the pr/18177 branch of jdk repo) that focus specifically on the addition. A new API is out of scope for this current PR. ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/18177#issuecomment-2011064004
