      As part of the modular image work being done in jigsaw/m2, user-editable configuration files are being moved from ${java.home}/lib to ${java.home}/conf, accessibility.properties is one of these.

      During the move it was noticed that accessibility.properties is being referenced/named directly from code in OpenJDK. This should be looked at, with the intention of moving the reference to closed src, since accessibility.properties is Oracle specific. See:

              FileInputStream in =
                    new FileInputStream(propsFile);
