(spec) Package.getName() uses i.e. instead of e.g.

XMLWordPrintable

      The description of getName's return value uses "i.e. java.lang" where it
      should (at least) say "e.g.," (note that added comma). "I.e." means
      "that is"; "e.g." means "for example". If the author of the comment can
      get this confused, so can the readers. I recommend spelling the thing
      out as a policy, in fact, as a policy for all doc comments. But at least
      we should get it right.
