        We need to decide if jlink should be capable of linking in a modules that `requires static` another module that is not observable at link-time.

        The reason this wasn't done originally was there was a concern that some plugins couldn't deal with "dangling references". It's not an issue for the plugins that are currently enabled by default. Another question was whether to drop the `requires static` from modules linked into the image.
