javac does not detect split packages between classpath and system image

See the mail thread beginning here:

Extract from initial post:

The question can be simplified like this:
//---
import javax.xml.transform.Transformer;

public class Test {
    Transformer transformer;
}
//---

Which of the following compiler invocations should accept / reject the program:

$ javac Test.java
$ javac -classpath xml-apis-1.4.01.jar Test.java
$ javac -classpath xml-apis-1.4.01.jar --limit-modules=java.base,java.xml Test.java
$ javac -classpath xml-apis-1.4.01.jar --limit-modules=java.base Test.java :

I agree that only the first and last invocations should succeed.

tl;dr A package split between the classpath and the system image is just as bad as a package split between two modules on the modulepath.
