Hello Brent,
The use case I had in mind was to keep a map readable during development.
Take a simple map: {:type QTDIR :path (hash "a string")}. It's easier to

class MYCLASS():
def __init__(self, x):
self.x = x

openjdk-9 automatically. Had the same issue.
Downgrading to openjdk-8 fixed the issue. Did this after i read about some
bug on https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8189357
