    Description

      There are two categories of lint warnings under consideration:

      -- reporting use of static variable or method qualified by an expression instead of a type
      -- reporting suspicious combinations of command line options, such as -source without setting a bootclasspath

      These should be covered by new suboptions for lint, such as
      -Xlint:static
      -Xlint:options
