      The upcoming security and locale changes (JDK-8281658 / JDK-8310201) change behavior so that -XshowSettings does not print all security and locale settings. A proposed tweak is for -XshowSettings:all to print the most verbose version of data available for each component area. -XshowSettings:all and -XshowSettings will no longer result in the same data being printed.

      In another proposed tweak, the -XshowSettings launcher option allows bad values to be passed for component option (e.g. -XshowSettings:foo) - it ignores such an option and instead defaults to printing equivalent of -XshowSettings.

      The launcher behavior should reject bad component options such as the one above.
