Great Ed. Thanks for being proactive. There is no progress in blame. Let's just find shortcomings and improve the situation.

Yes, this is a well known problem.  Cay Horstmann harangued me in our
little JavaOne hallway talk [1].  I think it's counter-productive to
talk about blame.  It was in the original design and this problem was
not discovered when the design was shared and discussed with the EG.  I
searched the jsr-314-eg archives and there was no dissent on this point.

Spec issue 548 is tracking the resolution of this problem.
