This long-term fix for the classpath would be a big step forward for the Java platform, and I hope it comes out as soon as possible because it will still take time after it for application servers to adopt it and third party libraries to provide modules for their code.
Some language features would be nice too, like support for null pointer prevention, auto-casts, etc.
What would you like to see in Java 9?
