I'm interested in that the apis needed to define a JDK9 gets added so plugins can
actually refer to them. M2e uses that for example to map maven to/from jdt settings and
launches.
But Fred should know the details and if situation is same as last time.
Note: this all happens because of a legal "glitch" where implementors of a JDK
Cannot call itself a Java before the main JDK is released and after that point any betas
need to be removed. It's annoying.
